A quote from an early-20th-century naturalist

This is from a Wall Street Journal:
‘The New Chimpanzee’ Review: Mysteries of the Chimpanzees

My own inclination, when considering chimpanzees or any other animal, is to follow the advice of the early-20th-century naturalist Henry Beston : “The animal shall not be measured by man. In a world older and more complete than ours they move finished and complete, gifted with extensions of the senses we have lost or never attained, living by voices we shall never hear. They are not brethren, they are not underlings; they are other nations, caught with ourselves in the net of life and time, fellow prisoners of the splendor and travail of the earth.”
