There is a better reason for studying zoology than its possible ‘usefulness’, and the general likeableness of animals. This reason is that we animals are the most complicated and perfectly designed pieces of machinery in the known universe. Put it like that, and it is hard to see why anybody studies anything else!

  • -- Richard Dawkins 理查德·道金斯

研究动物学有一个比它可能的“有用性”和动物的普遍可爱性更好的理由。这是因为我们动物是已知宇宙中最复杂、设计最完美的机器。这么说吧，很难理解为什么有人要学习其他东西!

You know, if you have a zoo you don't want the other creatures to see you.

If you want them to act on what their true nature is, you've got to leave them alone.

如果你有一个动物园，你不想让其他动物看到你。你想让他们出去玩，举止得体，你知道，当猴子来要香蕉时，他们不会表现得像猴子一样。如果你想让他们按照他们的本性行事，你就得让他们自己待着。
