Can animals communicate threw peoples minds?

Last night I could not sleep at all... so I went to the living room to go to the kitchen, and got a glass of milk. I look on the groun and I see a little black dot, so I think it is a spider... but I turn on the lights and it is a tiny green tree frog. It was covered in my dogs hair, motionless, and dry. So I flick at it slightly, and notice its legs twitch!



So then, I grab it, and I quickly go to the sink in my bathroom, wash it off gently and remove all the hair.. then I made it a tiny home inside the sink with some water and a rock outside the water.. and it looked as good as new, and it also slept there. I woke up in the morning, and I took it outside, and today I get back from school, and it is behind this pole thing that makes the rain go down so it doesn't mess up the lawn.. so I spray it with some water.. and it likes it and just stays there.



I couldn't sleep, but after making it its home, I slept perfectly.



So.. just wondering if it was telling me to come save it..



Can animals communicate threw peoples minds?

I admire your attempts to save the frog, but I don't think that frogs can ever communicate on any meaningful level with people. It's not that frogs don't communicate at all...they certainly do, but they base their communication on a system of noises and displays that we as humans simply aren't built to understand. We can study the frogs' communication patterns and glean some meaning from it, but they can't do the same to ours. A wounded frog would never be able to tell you, mentally or otherwise, that it needed your help; in fact, it would probably rather avoid being found by you or any other large animal. To a frog, we're simply potential predators.



Dogs, on the other hand, are a bit higher on the intelligence scale than frogs and there's good evidence that they can interpret the meanings of some of our words and facial expressions. Again, their ability to understand and communicate with us is very limited, as their perception of the world is totally different from ours.



Good luck to you.

Yes, It is In PeOples Minds If theY think Animals are coMMunicating with them.

It depends on what you think, really.



Personally I think you are at a certain place at a certain time at times in your life because there is a need, and you were possibly there (up, at night) because you are supposed to help out a creature in distress. But that is philosophical in nature...



You obviously have a good and sensitive heart and perhaps maybe on some level you became aware of the frog's distress and were led to where you needed to be. Animals in distress certainly do send out signals... sometimes audible (some call for help, others in warning), sometimes chemical, and sometimes through motion. You just may be sensitive enough to pick up on some of these! Blessings- dd



p.s for fun, I would love to see you re- post this in the relig/spirituality section and see what sort of answers you get!

Unfortunately, I don't think that animals are able to telepathically summon aid like that.



Sadly, I've had more than a few critters go belly-up on me - drying out dead in the bathroom, or starving to death after leaving their cage, or one salamander that made it across a large room, under the door, down the stairs and halfway across a warehouse before finally expiring in a sad, dust-caked mess on the floor.



If any of these critters could have communicated, they'd have survived their ordeals.



Also - throughout the lengthy evolutionary history of amphibians, there has only been an incredibly short period of time during which there was another organism able and willing to rescue things like little froggies from dire predicaments. Prior to that period, any kind of summons to help would simply resulted in a frog that was eaten instead of dessicated and hairy. So such an adaptation would hardly be advantageous for the little critters.
