When the landscape is barren and there are few living creatures of any kind, people begin to lose their humanity. And that's when they start to do the unthinkable: eat other humans. Bad guys treat humans the way they'd treat animals. Clothes and shoes in this film are largely connected to humanity (not to mention survival).

I've wondered before if animals can understand human speech at least to the point of knowing that it is a meaningful form of communication and there are plenty of answers to that online. But now i'm wondering if animals understand that human writing contains meaning/is a form of communication?

How, to humans, is “behavior” separate from the bird itself? For example, ritualistic displays of aggression and appeasement, of coming to the brink and then backing off, are common in humans and, probably, all animals.

As we humans are animals, like birds are, it often seems to make more sense to me to assume that their and our drivers are similar, not different.
