Horses and pigs have a certain trait of comprehension.đđŽđ·
Horses and pigs can understand human speech, according to recent research. These changes can be recognized by pigs and horses, which are held in barns and farms, as well as Asian wild horses.
”Our findings show that the emotions we infuse into our voices when we speak to them or around them affect animals,” said Elodie Briefer, a behavioral scientist at the University of Copenhagen.
Scientists from Zurich and Berlin were included in the research published in the journal BMC Biology.
In order to prevent the test animals from responding to words, the human recordings were made by a professional speaker who uttered a kind of meaningless sentence.
What is the end result? When spoken to in a negatively charged voice, the animals responded more aggressively, and usually faster, than when spoken to in a positively charged voice. ”People even seem to reflect the emotions they’re experiencing in certain situations,” Briefer said.
The animals’ responses showed that how people talk to them and around them affects their happiness. According to the statement, ”this suggests that human voices have a direct effect on the emotional state of animals,” which is ”quite interesting from an animal point of view” Animals will grow calmer if they are well-spoken to.
