Animal Life Poem by Ruta Mohapatra

Animal Life



Imagine
No one to fix a broken limb
No one to help deliver a baby
No one to soothe when a child is killed
By a lion, tiger or hyena

No ability to improvise
To deal with these crises
And yet the animals struggle on
To survive and grow
Are not they smarter than us?

Our brain has enabled us to use science to medicalise our societies. Many would have vacated life without this help. And many would have a poorer quality of life.
