🧠 Are Animals Intelligent Enough To Matter? 🧠

All animals are intellectually and emotionally sophisticated relative to their own species, and many have thoughts and emotions more complex than those of young human children or the mentally disabled.

Even so, it is not logical or equitable to withhold ethical considerations from individuals whom we imagine think or feel differently than we do.

We uphold the basic rights of humans who do not reach certain intellectual and emotional benchmarks, so it is only logical that we should uphold these rights for all sentient beings.

Denying them to non-human animals is base speciesism and, therefore, ethically indefensible.

Further, it is problematic to assert that intelligence and emotional capacity exist on a linear scale where insects occupy one end and humans occupy the other.

For example, bees are experts in the language of dance and communicate all sorts of things with it. Should humans who cannot communicate through interpretive dance be considered less intelligent than bees?

Finally, even if an intellectual or emotional benchmark were justification for killing a sentient being, there is no scientific support for the claim that a capacity for intelligence or emotion equals a capacity for suffering. In fact, there is a great deal of scientific support for just the opposite; that because non-human animals do not possess the ability to contextualize their suffering as humans do, that suffering is much greater.

About Luminese Eggs

Luminese eggs have a star-shaped symbol that glows in the dark. Because these peculiar eggs fly using it's pair of wings, Luminese eggs are often mistaken as fireflies.

About the Luminese Creature

Immediately after hatching, the shining star on the surface of the egg peels off and becomes a completely separate entity. These stars seem to guide the newly hatched Luminese.

The meaning of the glowing star remains a complete mystery to Arkians, including the Science and Research Center. No data has been recorded about the importance or role of the star. However, it is clear that Lumineses and their star share a very close connection, as one never leaves the other.

Lumineses are currently the smallest known creatures classified as dragons on Ark, a title once held by the Torget. It is due to this petite, fairy-like size and association with stars that there persists rumors of Clous being related to the Luminese species, though there exists no solid scientific evidence.
