RE: [RC] Tying to Trailer = vanished? - Burnett, Elly
"....so why would a horse think his buddy had disappeared just
because he was 5 feet away on the other side of a lousy
trailer?..."
It's a phenomenon called "object permanance." Kids
don't even learn it until they're a certain age (don't quite know how old--I
think two). I have an african grey that understands this quite well, but
he's also got the brains of a six year old kid.
Sorry,
just another dorky tidbit of information I seem to pick up
constantly...
