From the Paper:

"This research discusses the book, When Elephants Weep: The Emotional Lives of Animals, by Jeffrey Moussaieff Masson and Susan McCarthy, which presents anecdotal evidence for the existence of feelings in animals. This research also draws on several other sources to supplement the discussion.

Human emotions are often hard to describe. If people are unable to describe how they are feeling, are the people unable to feel emotion? Or perhaps they are of limited verbal ability and have difficulty expressing any thought. The argument that an emotion does not exist until a person is able to describe and verbalize the feeling is frequently used to discount and discredit the belief that animals have emotional lives. Animals can and do experience emotions. They express them through their actions and behaviors instead of words."
