Why is it so easy for animals to do what they were created for and?

Because animals don't have to accomplish as many tasks, so they can specialize on a few specific tasks and learn to perfect them. Humans take on a greater number of tasks, most of which are highly complex, so they can't specialize as easily.

On the one hand, Humans ARE animals.\n\nOn the other, we are something "more" than animals because we are sentient and we are significantly more developed. Although all animals have SOME ability to communicate (even if only by stench), and many even know how to make tools, they are still incapable of the advanced feats of humanity.\n\nI suppose that it may by some slim chance be possible that animals are sentient, but I doubt it.

Because many years ago dogs use to be working animals. If they wouldn't work they were killed. So you see dogs weren't always lazy dead headed animals like today. Dogs use to work as hard as humans if not harder. That is where working like a dog came from. Through the year humans have made dogs soft, Now they don't work, well a few do. People just want them as pets these days.

Dogs work on instinct, while humans work on free-will.  You only have to use simple reinforcement on a dog, outside=good inside=bad, while with a kid you need to make them want to go.  It can be next to impossible to make someone want to do anything.

Because they are genetically programmed that way.

You are so funny!!!  I'll just bet they do.  Animals are smarter than their human counterparts.

instincts...just like how animals know how to reproduce.

Probably our ancestors saw animals eating other eggs and followed suit.  Once we had established that eggs were tasty, and we had domesticated chickens, we just kept eating eggs.

It depends on heat and their own weight.It is harder for large animals to cool themselves.

Because of their creation.

Instinct my dear...\nINSTINCT\nYeah what sorta zoo puts its deer in the lions cage for feeding, I never heard of that one?\nAnyway, we as humans are so BLESSED with brains though obviously some never use them...\nAnimals are blessed with INSTINCTS- oh we get stuff from our ancestors too like FIGHT OR FLIGHT--Addrenaline.\nOr our temperment,size,you know...how we think, feel, react to certain things.\nBut the ANIMAL KINGDOM, since their brains for most of em are so small, They have to go on INSTINCTS from their PARENT, and their parents and their parents,parents,parents...lol\nYou get the picture?

Because their heart beats slower than ours does. I saw a special program on the tube that explained an animal generally lives a certain extremely large number of heartbeats. Animals with short lifespans have a heartbeat like rapid gunfire.

Some animals have only one partner their whole life (humans are more promiscuous than say penguins).\nSome animals live in society (some even are more organized than humans and do what they have to do).\nSome animals kill to eat (that includes humans).\n\nEvery animal behave according to their specie, so, it's a mistake to think a fish has to act like an ant, or that a human has to act like a lion. We are not vegetables, nor minerals, we are animals and animals do not behave like other animals of another specie.\n\nFear and anger are instincts. Try hitting someone and see if they'll be stoic waiting for your first and not even blink.\n\nWheter you believe in evolution or not, you can't deny instincts. I'm sure instincts can be accepted without evolution.

god made all the animals. the chicken had to lay the egg. If it was an egg, it would not be warmed and surely die off.

They do, but some animals have a higher tolerance than humans.  Think about it, how would you feel after you eat a rotten carcass or plants off the ground.

God made the animals. That's your answer. Now ponder something really tough - like where that one sock goes that I keep losing when I do laundry.

1. The species of plants and animals have changed over the ages. We don't agree. God made every animal, and people, in six days. Breeds, like German Shepard dogs, and such, were formed later, but most of those were bred by humans.\n\n2. There was no "archaic" species\n\n3. Since there was no "archaic" species, there could be no change from it.
