物活得难啊——觅食固不易,生存更危险;万物相侵害,一环扣一环。
好不容易一口一口衔食喂大的小鸟,让黄鼬一下就连窝端了,她窝里还有
一群小崽子;刚出壳不久的小海鸥、小企鹅,硬让贼鹰从父母脚底下给叼走了;
至于羚羊、角马之类食草动物,时刻都在肉食动物的窥伺之中,不得安宁……
危乎险矣,弱肉强食。野生动物的那点自由,需要何等的血的代价!
由此便想到狗狗以及同类,不能不佩服,聪明!以狗狗之肥胖、鲜嫩、笨
拙,在野生环境下绝活不过三天,肯定被吃得连骨头也不剩。可是现在,它比
人吃得还好,睡得比人还放心。它的生存环境和野生动物一比,那它见的世面
就大了!
狗是动物中最聪明的,它看起来是投靠了人,做了人类的奴才;其实,也
可以反过来说是利用了人,揣摸透了人的弱点,让人心甘情愿地成了它的仆人。
人不是最虚荣、最有领袖欲吗?那好,它迎合你,服从你,忠诚于你,让
你高高在上,满足你这点小爱好。
人不是最怕寂寞,最怕空虚吗?那好,它装憨卖傻,活力二八,跟随左右,
陪伴终生,使你觉得最堪信赖的是犬不是人,所以有个亿万富婆临终把遗产给
了爱犬而不给儿孙。
至于你舍不得吃肉而给它吃肉,你为它洗澡、治病、打针、梳毛、遛弯儿,
它吃得香了你高兴,它屙不出屎来你蹩劲儿……如此服务,渐成习惯,回头一
想,咦,似乎还没对哪个人这么有耐性过!
这不是,你让狗耍了,明知道你也愿意。
而且,它绝不愁濒临灭绝。它的一个狗儿子明码标价,它还没生,就有一
大群人等着买呢!它不愁计划生育,也不怕难产,有医生给它做剖腹产手术呢!
要说狗现在过得比人好,一点不过分。住高楼别墅,乘豪华轿车,真是钟
鸣鼎食、锦衣玉佩、公子哥儿、淑女名媛。可是人弄得这些,得奋斗一辈子还
不一定行,狗呢,一点劲儿不费,嘿嘿,坐享其成!
你说,是狗聪明还是人聪明。
