So in Applied Skills on Monday, we watched "Chantek: The Ape Who Went To College", and afterwards we had a discussion on whether it's right/possible to "own" an animal. I thought it'd be a great debate--the ethics of ownership. I thought Mr Olson brought up a great point--what differentiates animals from humans? Aren't humans animals too? That really made me think.
Also, whether or not it's ethical to raise an orangutan as a human. That was interesting too.
