Here is a post for us to have a bit of fun and be silly -
In our human languages we have names for every creature in the world. I was wondering in their languages what animals would refer to us as when talking about humans !! I am sure that the names the hunted animals call humans is maybe best avoided on a forum as they would be deservedly very rude and offensive,but what about the others. I reckon that birds call us the walkers, dogs probably call us slaves, cats maybe refer to us as the feeders and fish maybe call us the air swimmers and maybe rhino's call us the hornless !! So come on folks for a bit of fun dig deep and let us know your thoughts on what you think certain creatures would refer to us as !!
Love and light to all

I think the kindest name would be two legs. Which in the world of animals makes us disabled!

Maybe zebra's and leopards call us the plain lot !!!!

For what it is worth, my blue and gold macaw Mary, had a very specific noise that she used to refer to me; I’m pretty sure it was my name according to her, as my name for her was Mary. She also tried to teach me macaw sounds, making the same sound and watching me carefully as I attempted it, with no real success on my part; it’s like us trying to teach a bird to say ‘Hello’ or whatever.
I reckon that she would call humans dumb.

Having grown up ( physically ) in Wales and having spent a lot of time around sheep I am quite certain that they used to say " hello lover " so that would mean they refer to us as lovers !!!!

Hunted animals needn't have rude names for people. They might call them "Bangers and baggers"
