Why ? Because anthropomorphizing non - human animal is fun and utilitarian . Yes , useful .
There ’s a understanding humans love videos like this ; after all , our tendency to project human quality on fauna stretches back well beyondthe world ’s first ridiculous cat photos . Some researchers even think that , without anthropomorphism , neither pet - retention nor animal domestication would ever have been potential . In other words : your tendency to d’aaaaw at this picture may really have pretty important survival value .
