So, have we figured out yet how a dog sitting next to kittens while the house burns down around them saves their lives?
I once had a horse* that refused to leave it stall while the barn burned down until it was physically dragged out. I take it that this was an effort at self preservation?
*That's not true, I read it in Black Beauty when I was a kid. But to the extent that this tale was in a book I physically owned, I had a horse.
