Why Can’t We Be Friends?

What really sets humankind apart from other animals?

Intelligence? Agriculture? Art? Opposable thumbs?

These distinguishing features are nothing compared to engaging in acts of war.

The Let’s Be Friends blog displays odd animal pairings that make you wonder why people can’t simply get along.

If a dog and a cat can get along, why can’t different cultures do so also?

I like to think of these photos as messages to forget any predispositions about the “other team”.

If we remember we all have the same goals (fall in love, raise a family, get a good job), then we can forget that there are any differences between us: we can be at peace.
