What to expect
So, you think you're special?
You think that just because people have built giant cities, invented pop-up toasters, and put a person on the Moon that they are somehow different from other living things?
Well it's time to think again! Humanimal explains the connections between the human and animal worlds in ways you never before imagined...
Discover how slime moulds can navigate through a maze; how rats tickle and laugh out loud; how elephants have funerals for their lost loved ones; how bees vote in elections to decide where to locate their nests; how crows use cars to crack nuts; and a whole lot more!
This exciting, immersive exploration proves that humans and other animals don't just live on the same planet, they also share many of the same patterns of behaviour, making us all fellow players in the drama that is life on Earth!
