Natural art
Hello! Ihave focused this post on natural art, NOT made by humans. Oh, and I don't mind if you disagree with my opinions! π
How can animals make art?
Animals can make art with a pattern of pawprints, or a 'display' of bones off an animal they have eaten!π§ It can be as simple as a scratch on a tree. A cat π could play with a pile of leaves and make an abstract picture. Even a bird's nest can be art.
Is that considered art?
It depends. If you consider everything I have just mentioned art, you are a very open-minded person. If you don't, your not not open-minded, but you could be more. Expand your mind! Think about things, and see how you can change!
Have humans ruined this?
In my opinion, they haven't. Sure, we've ruined habitats, but we haven't destroyed their freedom. Yet. In zoos, they still are free to do everything I mentioned ( see paragraph 1 ), as they are given natural things. But humans are very bad. We have built buildings, destroying habitats, killed animals, even brought species to exticnction! E.g, the Elephant Seal was nearly driven to exctinction, but hunting was banned a few decades ago.
I hope I have given you something to think about.

It certainly has given us something to think about, hopeful_city! Thank you for these questions and your answers. What do others think?

although we have been destroyed trees and habitats it is for a good cause as we have made more space for humans because as we have seen the popularity has been growing very quick as someday there will be no more space we are using as much as possible for the circle of life (although I have to point out that we are destroying the eco system very very quickly soon enough animals will start moving into our home and we will have so start sharing)
Yeah! Let's hope we don't wake up with a lion in our bedroom! π

Δ° like the post and Δ° learnt more about art and how animals create art, do you think EVERY animals create art? For example an ant? I think it is, because an ant can get little bits of sand and make a house. I watched to see what they were going to do and I saw, tiny sand that they were holding and left it somewhere where there was a gap, I realised that it probably took them days and weeks to build their home. So I think everything is art, and every animal can create art.
An excellent question. Can animals ever be aware they are making art, though?
Maybe Tom because I have a yes and no
Can you give your reasons for both yes and no?
Yes, is because the higher animals can see a nice picture and some animal can speak to each other and tell them they might is not be animals we were animals and we are still animals mammals. Even if they do not know what art is they will have another word for it.
Thankyou! π I've seen some of your posts, and they're great too!
Thank you βΊοΈ I also seen a lot of yours to they are also great ππ
Thankyou! π πππ
Thank you hopeful city! Do YOU think that animals are aware that they are making art? Because, I think they are. At school we watched this clip where a fish gets stones and puts it on the floor( underwater) after that they had created a big art piece with stones. So In conclusion I think they are aware.
Wow! My guinea pigs made a sort of art piece out of number twos (eek!) and it ended up looking quite good.

what did it look like?
It was like a circle with a pattern inside! It was kinda weird, but better than you'd expect from a guinea pig!
