Temple Grandin on the Language of Animals

This is the clip I mentioned in class in which Temple Grandin (an autistic yet brilliant doctor of animal science and professor at Colorado State) discusses how animals perceive the world. This clip is from a panel discussion that I attended at the CT Forum in Hartford a few years ago. Earlier in the talk, she compared the way autistic people perceive the world to the way animals perceive the world. After you view the video, consider the way she describes animal perception, and compare it to the way Christopher experiences the world around him. Thoughts?
