The intersection of two superficially unrelated events triggered this podcast. One was a series of stories involving animals engaged in various forms of human therapy or salvation and the responses of some in the animal care community about these. The second involved the development of robots for military use that attempt to mimic the movement of horses. Or at least that’s what the result looked like to me. Well, actually more like a cross between a horse and a rabbit.
While I recorded the last half of this podcast, my distinctly non-robotic dogs and cat either succumbed to cabin or early spring fever. Without warning, they suddenly started zooming around the center chimney, tackling each other and rolling by in a flurry of canine and feline pounding and batting paws, grunts, growls, and barks. Were I more technologically competent, I would have deleted all that from the final recording. But I’m not and, besides, it made me laugh. 🙂
