The entire article is stupid
> This is perhaps because most humans failed to even entertain the possibility that animals might care about the death of those they love.
Ever person with two pets who hung out and had one die has looked to see if the other showed grief. A really stupid strawperson premise. And you'll see it, but the question as a layperson is, is it real or imagined.
Also dogs mourning their dead owners have multiple fucking movies made about them. It's pop culture for dams sake. Hachikō was re-made into an American movie from a Japanese movie made off multiple news articles.
But at the end of the day if animals show grief why are they using this current cliche of J35. Why not the billions of animals that interact with us every day. Why are they using famous cases of grief that we've all heard before?
