First, it gives a methodological justification for how one can make such attributions in the first place. Then supplies behavioral and physiological evidence for emotions such as fear, anger, and affection. It goes on to defend the idea that birds have the neurological and cognitive capacities for emotions. It next turns towards cognitive and mental considerations, including intentionality, mental content, language-like thought, and making attributions of propositional attitudes and evaluative judgments to birds. It concludes by considering whether birds have human-like emotions or bird-relative ‘schmemotions’.engopenAccessAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Estoniapractical philosophydefenceemotionsbirdsmagistritöödlinnudeksistentspraktiline filosoofiaThesis
