I'm not saying that there are'nt other animals that are sentient, but
those just happen to be the few species that have scientifically been
proven to be sentient.
My definition of sentience is based on a few deifferent traits;
-Complex emotions.
-Complex thought.
-Self-awareness.
-Long term memory.
