I originally thought the man in this video was Johnny Morris, but I see that it's the Dutch Biologist Jan Van Hooff, who is an expert in 'primates'.
The video reminds me of the night I sat up with Freddie (my lovely cat). I knew he was dying, so I stayed with him for an hour or so until he was fast asleep, the next morning I found him lifeless. I am so pleased that he knew I was there beside him; I'm sure that animals appreciate that just as humans do.
It's truly awful when we lose our beloved pets. I remember seeing my Auntie in tears as she had her poodle put down due to illness.
ReplyDeleteOh yes, Johnnie Morris from Animal Magic. As kids we always watched him. He was clever with all the animal voices.
I used to watch all those early TV animal programmes. Hans and Lottie Hass or Hess, and a few others. I'm surprised I didn't become a Vet.
