What reading level is The Nature And Development of Animal Intelligence book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Considering how numerous and perfect are the co-ordinated muscular movements of compara- 150 ANIMAL INTELLIGENCE tively young puppies, this sense must be early present, and finally well developed.
Sense of Support. — I have found in the case of all puppies, and several other kinds of animals examined, that even on the first day of birth they will not creep off a surface on which they rest, if elevated some little distance above the ground. When they approach the edge they manifest hesitation, g...rasp with their claws or otherwise attempt to prevent themselves falling, and, it may be, cry out, giving evidence of some profound disturbance in their nervous system.
It would seem that there is no more urgent psychic necessity to young mammals than this sense of being supported. All their ancestral experiences have been associated with terra f/rma, so that it is not very sur- prising that when terra firma seems about to be re- moved they are so much disturbed. To my own mind this is one of the most instructive and striking psychic manifestations of young animals, though I am not aware that any attention has been called to it before ; and instead of referring to it under any of the usual divisions of sense, as the muscular sense, pressure sense, etc., I prefer to treat the subject under the above general heading, for it seems to me that the feeling is a somewhat complex one.
