[quote="woeler1"]no, they don't. Only mammals feel/can express emotions. Why? Because the brains of insects are not that complex, the only contain basic instincts like eat, move and sleep. Insects, reptiles and Fish can not remember events that happened in the past. Mammals however do have complex brains, they can remember events in the past, also mammals are the only animals that dream while they are asleep.
it is because we recognize our environment, families and events, we feel emotion because we understand what is going on.[/quote]
Reptiles? Wrong. I don't think they can feel anything complex, but I know at least some species can feel emotion. Perhaps not the little tiny ones, but a Komodo dragon can, and reptiles similar to it.
