ANIMAL BODY LANGUAGE
Human beings are not the only ones who communicate. Animals use body language and facial expressions to tell each other how they feel and what they think. Here is a quick look at how some of our animal friends send messages to us and to each other.
Dods use facial expressions, sounds, body movements and their tails to communicate. When a dog is happy, its ears will stand up and its eyes will be wide open. The dog will bark excitedly, wag its tail and may run around in circles or jump up and down to show you that it wants to play. A dog that is afraid will lay its ear back and close its eyes. The dog may show its teeth and lower its body so that it is close to the ground. The dog may also shiver(颤抖) or tremble, and it will put its tail between its legs. When a dog is angry, it will stare at you, show its teeth and snarl(狂吠). The dog's body will be upright(直立的) and the dog will try to make itself look as big as possible. The tail will stand straight out from the body.
Elephants also use noises and body language to express themselves. An elephant's sense of smell is highly developed. An elephant can smell how another elephant is feeling and even tell if it is sick. The elephant's nose, or trunk, is also used to make noises and to greet other elephants. Different noises have a variety of meanings: they can mean " I am hungry", "I am angry ", or " Good to see you! " An elephant's body language includes ear signals and gestures. If an elephant spreads its ears, it means " watch out! " To show friendship, elephants will touch each other with their trunks and stand close to each other, putting their foreheads together.
Dolphins are social animals. They live in groups and like to show each other their feelings. An angry dolphin will sometimes slap its tail on the surface of the water. The movement and noise let other dolphins know that something is wrong. If a dolphin wants to send a message over a long distance, or if it simply wants to show how strong it is, it will jump high out of the water and land on its side, making a loud splash(溅). A dolphin that is happy will play with friends, often making small jumps into the air. When dolphins are tired and need to rest, they will swim in small groups close to the surface. If you see dolphins doing so, you should not disturb them.
