Intoduction
Do you have a pet? If so do you ever wonder what goes through its mind when it is sleeping? Have you ever had the thought of animals dreaming? Well if you did your right. Animals do dream when they sleep. If you ever watch an animal sleep you might be able to see it twitch. Did you ever wonder how scientists found out animals do dream? They couldn't just talk to the animal, so they did an experiment. They watched a trained rat go through a maze and recorded the brain activity of that rat. Next the watched a rat sleep and recorded its brain activity. When they were done they compared and found that the brain activity was almost the same.
My Opinion
Many people don't believe animals actually dream. They want more proof. I on the other hand do believe animals dream. I have read and found information and facts about it. I have watched videos of the animals moving. I read all about the study the scientist did. I even saw my friend dog go to sleep and move around a lot. From all of this info I concluded that animals do dream. I also believe that if they are in a very deep sleep their dreams can be as advanced as humans. Sometimes they dream of past experiences and replay memories as dreams too.
you can see they move very slightly because
unlike humans they are not able to move their
hands much because they don't have fingers.
