I had to laugh at this too. Sometimes I think that my crits be sassing me big time. Especially my Husky Maxx. All of them are mouthy, and have way too much to say, so I don't think that cartoon is too far from wrong.
I could show examples by the boat load of how wild animal are connecting with people, but they seem to connect with children faster and easier.
Interesting how the crow only allows the kid to pet him. I interviewed an American hiker who related this story:
"Birds were always interacting with me, and I suspect they were like the gossips of the forest, who would inform all the other animals of my presence. I would visit the dens of rattlesnakes, who never seemed alarmed by me, but if anyone else was near, they were nervous. Birds would even go out of their way to show me where to find berries, which they had no interest in eating themselves, but they knew what I liked."
