But . . . There are so many!

I would have a very difficult time choosing my favorite animal! I grew up on a hobby farm, before they were known as such . . . And way before they gained popularity in recent times.

I’ve worked at an exotic animal sanctuary and I have worked as a farm hand. I have cared for animals at rescues and do volunteer work with local animal shelters. ALL the animals are my favorites!

The Creator loves the animals he made, called them good, and made humanity his emissaries on earth to care for them.

J. Aaron Gruben, A Theology of Beasts: Christians and Veterinary Medicine

I dare say, I much prefer the company of animals to people, for if they become aggressors, they behave so by their instinctual nature or in response to how a human has behaved toward them. Humans, on the other hand, act in such ways of their own conscious choosing.
