WOW! I can't say I was too surprised after listening to this 14-minute audio presentation, but I can say I thoroughly enjoyed the experience. I love animals, and believe that most domesticated animals honestly can communicate with humans. I have an old cat that seems to talk to me, and now that I have a dog, I know that these animals can communicate with their human counterparts. But no animal can do so in the ways a monkey can.
I thought this was an excellent example of how to effectively use audio in a story, though throughout the process I missed the visual elements that knew would add to the story.
The package seemed like a piece that would run on Animal Planet or Discovery, or a late-night special on MPT. I loved the monkeys screeching, and how the narrator explained exactly what the animals were asking for. I have no doubt that these animals really were trying to use their limited capabilities to speak the human language and get what they were asking for.
I do believe that monkeys and apes are extremely smart creatures, and can learn words from humans. It would be silly to dispute the fact that these creatures are almost human, especially after hearing this story.
Overall, I found this to be a great story, and the fact that a link for visuals was included in the package inclines me to believe that this package was nearly flawless in its total design.
