=Do Animals Have Language? =
 * Feb. 7, 2013 **

== **Psychologists are interested in studying if animals have language or not. There are many examples of exceptional animals (dogs, dolphins, chimps, gorillas, parrots) who do understand language and have even produced language. However, other psychologists argue that this is just communication NOT language.**

**Your task today is to research animal language and collect evidence that supports both sids of the argument. Include specific examples of research done on this (including specific animals and researchers).**

**Present your research by creating a document (flyer/brochure) outlining both sides of the argument. Finally, determine which side you believe have the most compelling arguments and write a brief paragraph in which you explain which you most agree with and why.**

**Include photos, captions and beautiful colors :) Please print in color so that I can hang them up and decorate my classroom!** **Lastly, as part of the document or as a seperate attachment include a"Works Cited" in MLA format.**
