Considering the sense of continuum in the overarching theory of evolution by Charles Darwin, it is impossible to consider that the animals are without any trace of mind.

This kind of a thought must have evolved mainly due to the impact of behaviorism and scientific evolution. Animals were objects to be made use of in the labs and in other sectors, than to be loved and cared for. In order to facilitate such a utilitarian approach we needed a theory where the animals did not have thinking capacity nor felt pain. In this unit, we will look at different approaches to mind and animals: what do we mean by mind; do animals seem to think; and what do we mean when the animals do not have a mind.
