  • That zoo director is a complete asshole.

  • @biskut0024 Well, we humanize human children too... Just watch little children, they aren't much different from Koko in terms of behaviour. And so are humans that grow up in the wild without human contact. In fact "culturalize" might be a better word. Whether it's right or wrong I don't know.
