I'll leave the official answer to mala or tastyt... but I think, i've seen some primates when tickled emote shreiks very similar to laughter... of course, it's not a "yuk, yuk, yuk" a la human... but my answer would be, within reason, yes.i'll seek an official answer if no one offers one up..

phatman Posted November 19 Report Share Posted November 19 ...i always think of seals, dolphins and monkeys....you would swear there are moments when they're laughing...and these are especially playful creatures so i wouldnt doubt it...as far as actual scientific support, i have no idea...

The bear turns to the rabbit and asks, "Do you ever have trouble with shit sticking to your fur?" The rabbit replies, "No!" So the bear picks up the rabbit and wipes his ass with it.

mala Posted November 19 Report Share Posted November 19 Originally posted by upjumpdaboogie I'll leave the official answer to mala or tastyt... Huh?...do I look like the world's foremost authority on animal behavior? Um...here's a linky-link:http://www.pawsandpets.com/doglaugh.html I think dogs have their own version of laughter. Cats on the other hand, just sneer and snicker at the stupidity of their humans. Obnoxious buggers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mala Posted November 20 Report Share Posted November 20 Originally posted by upjumpdaboogie Well you were on applying sciences to human behavior... weren't you? wouldn't this qualify..... The operative word here is 'human'. I agree with you on the primates, but that's just it; they're primates. I wonder about other animals. Oh, if I could just talk to the animals, talk to the animals.
