Comment on I wonder what fish and sharks think of whales and dolphins that have to surface to breath. I can totally see it "get out of here air breather, go hug the surface."

  I know from experience dogs, cows and a lot of birds hate each other for being different, so this is nothing unique.

    You’re confusing instinctive territorial behavior with hate.

      I think you’re misinterpreting, I meant dogs of different breeds bring chill with an unknown dog of their own breed, while trying to get rid of dogs of a completely different breed, even if those have lived in the same neighbourhood for years.

      Horses of different breeds in the same stable still have a hard time trusting each other, but not with one of their own breed, even if that’s a visitor.

      And so forth.

      TL;DR humans aren’t the only racist animals

        Its still territorial. Which is instinctive. It’s not hate.
