There is a subreddit where individuals share photographs and videos that can uncover animal cognizance, feelings, and intelligence. What's more, the proof is quite persuading. 

The online group called r/LikeUs was established in 2013 and has members numbering over 1.8 million. Over the years, the online group has gathered heaps of heartwarming and fascinating content.

One of the moderators, u/gugulo, says, "r/LikeUs is a spot to assemble and talk about evidence displaying animal consciousness, feelings, and intelligence. Another moderator, u/sydbobyd, clarified, "Posts that are charming yet show minimal intelligence or emotional conduct do not have a place here."

Likewise, r/LikeUs is not the spot to post animal examples or lifeless things that are simply dressed or posed like humans or are modified. This appears to be a typical and justifiable disarray of the subreddit name, but our objective isn't to show animals who simply happen or are controlled by people to look human. 

According to the moderator, this will consistently leave ill-defined situations. However, they trust that this might mitigate a portion of the disarray they've seen recently.

Regardless of whether we're discussing a rhino who has a great memory or a cow searching for help after his son got chased out of school, r/LikeUs has everything. Keep scrolling and check out 35 of subreddit's most popular posts.

6. Supporting each other...

7. They admire babies like us as well

18. Pikin is a gorilla saved from the bushmeat trade. She is petted by her caretaker, Appolinaire, on their way to a forest sanctuary.

19. Empathetic rats

The moderators sorted posts into five classes, and they tidy up the subreddit accordingly: The first is the best content (talk about insightful conduct, complex feelings, scientific articles, philosophical conversations); the second is good content (deliberate behavior, surprising behavior, talented behavior); the third is OK content (articulations, curiosity, responses); the fourth is bad content (cute, playful, humorous); and the last is very bad content (fake, misdirecting, spam). Obviously, the majority of these posts have a place at the top! 

Taking care of subreddit after so many years, moderators have learnt a great deal about animals themselves. According to the team, mammals have great memories, and a few orangutans figure out how to fish, including dogs, who can tell when they're at the vet.

"For them to have such great memories implies that they recall their suffering. Mammals are extremely developed emotionally, just like us. They share a large number of our sentiments, like love and fear. Their feelings can be just as upsetting as our own. They can be so depressed that they will not eat! "

21. "Come out and have a sunbath with me"

33. Couple goals

34. Watching over her puppies

35. It's banana time...

They also added that, on the other hand, non-mammal animals have all the earmarks of being not quite the same as humans. However, birds consistently track down ways of baffling us, as they obviously like to have a good time!

The crow is most likely the smartest bird there is! Birds, as a general rule, are extremely mindful of what their companions are doing.

The moderators say that proof of animals' consciousness is all over the place! So every time you track down a few, make sure to share it with them.
