“Without intuitive and instinctual knowledge, animals and human beings could not endure. All animals possess the basic instinct for survival, and their instinctual behavior exhibits many traits of advance planning.

Organized impulses rule all animals including human beings because they ensure self-preservation and continuation of the species.”
