When Elephants Weep: The Emotional Lives of Animals by Jeffrey Moussaiff Masson and Susan McCarthy

Anyone that has ever lived with animals would not deny that animals have the capacity to feel, but scientists continually do that. This book investigates animal emotion. You are introduced to many animals that do amazing things, for example: Buffalo who ice-skate—for the joy of it. There is scientific data from people in all kinds of animal professions. This is the first book of its kind since Darwin to explore emotions in the animal kingdom. It proves that animals can feel. --Shay G., student
