In the UK, scientists from Queen Mary, University of London have been doing an inneresting experiment.

They're looking to measure the moods of goats at a sanctuary in Kent, trying to see how well the animals can recover from neglect and abuse.

What they did was test the goats in a special enclosure that had hidden food surprises.

They studied how optimistic or pessimistic the goats were as to whether or not they'd find food.

The best part about this study, other than showing even farm animals have a complex emotional life, was that it showed mistreated animals can still be fully rehabilitated!

That's so ahamyzing!!

Check out the video (above) to see the scientists in action with some cutie goats!

PETA has been fighting for animal rights for years.

They're often the only voice speaking up for those who have no voice of their own.

Though recently they've come under fire for allegedly euthanizing 90% of the animals they've sheltered!!

The Virginia Department for Agriculture and Consumer Services said PETA euthanized 1,675 of the 1,877 animals they took in their care in 2012.

The Center for Consumer Freedom (CCF) is attacking PETA over these numbers, saying:

William Shatner is just one man.

One handsome, extraordinary man with the voice that sounds similar to a beautiful harp.

So when the Star Trek star speaks, we unequivocally listen.

For a new Greenpeace ad, Shatner makes the insightful point that pet owners would do anything to keep their beloved ones safe from harm.

But those same animal lovers seem nonchalant about the destruction happening to earth's animals and its environment as a whole.

We should protect ALL the animals, or as many as we can!

Right?!

Check out the Shatner narrated Greenpiece video (above) !!!
