...And would want to take over the world?

They are already stronger and faster then we are, what if they would be as smart? And I mean all animals, the fish and bugs too.

How long would we last?

read the island of Dr. Moreau by H.G. Whells

I think I read it couple of years ago.

Doesn't that involve some human-animal crossbreeds? And I don't think they were that intelligent.

We would die...they have their instinct goin for them too...Yes, and the insects would befriend them, cause we kill more of them....

OHHH..We would lose...What a why to die...All chewed up...

question is would they develop mechanicaly and industrialy like we did?

Humanity would loose, if any race ever challenges humans they will loose, already they are loosing the battle to parasitic creatures what you may call viruses.

I wonder if they would employ slave labor?

no, humanity would never become a slave race, they have to much pride, they would die befor serving.

How about the wolves enslaving the sheep?

Humans would still remain supreme.

We have weaponry that would destroy the entire planet before ever letting another race surpass us as the most intelligence.

You see, they would kill everyone befor becoming slaves.

We may have the weapons but no real chance against them what so ever...

And even if humanity did manage to kill every single last animal on this planet we would all die soon after our glorious victory..

Animals may not have technology but they a lot of them are more powerful and faster then humanity, would they be as smart as most humans then they would own our asses... We could nuke them all we want but that would only destroy us, besides some animals are actually capable of surviving nuclear attacks unlike humans.

This would bring forth the self destruction of humanity.

I don't think so...

Humans have the best combination of any animal because we are bi-peds with opposable thumbs. We can run, aim, and shoot all at the same time.

Have you ever seen a monkey run? Have you ever seen a cheetah hold a gun?

Unless you're proposing head mounted lasers for 4 legged animals, and personal tanks for slow running animals.


It also sounds like you're under the belief that animals would all join together on one team to take out humans. Humans can't even get along and the only thing that differs one human from another is gender and skin color. Imagine trying to get bears and lions to work together.

You think hate crimes are high now? Imagine the level of hate crimes that would be committed by animals against other animals....they'd kill themselves before they killed off all the humans.

You make a good point, but does humanity not act as the animals do? many humans still hate Germans because they started the war (dont take offence if your german I mean non) people disagree and kill each other every day, humanity is rabbid, they can't work togeather.

good points; and usually when there's a crisis humans manage to settle their differences and fight the good fight.

The main problem would be combatting the birds; we would need airsupport to win the war.

Exactly Echuu...

When push comes to shove...and the threat is great enough. Humans are able to put aside their differences for the greater good.

It's hard to imagine such qualities in an animal...

We all would die...and cockroaches and rats would inherit the Earth.

Nuclear attack doesn't have any effect on cockroaches and rats can adjust into it fast.

My point is that humans could win if they put there heads togeather, but they would not, they would fight seperate sides, humans fear anything been above them in the food chain, look at the 1500 and the Vampire hunts weather you believe in vampires or not humans feared becoming pray but no matter how maney people they staked for being apperent vampires, humans were still dieing from aparent vampire attacks.

Or if you prefer a less Occult example look at the war with the Vietkong there army was 100x less but still they won, will power alowed the Vietkong to win, as it would with animals.

About the air war; it really depends- I mean, our helicopters would be screwed but there's no way they could take our fighters.

And what animal could take out an M1 Abrams; Even an elephant or rhino wouldn't do very much, they be blown away before they get within 50 yards.

I'd definitely fall over and die...
rip

COCKROACHES WILL WILL THE WORLD AS THEY WILL NOT DIE !!!!

lol

Question though; are we including insects or not; if we are then we'd be dead but if it were just animals I think we'd have a fair chance.

the said insects alike before i think so i think we die

haha if youve nto i guessed i ment rule the world

Should humanity fall, there are many races ready to take there place at the top.

true what race do you suppose will go first

please dont say mokeys

I do not know, but i do not think any of the mortal animals would take the place.

ok, no mortal, hmm mmm intersting commment

By mortal i ment from the physical plane.

Insects could go in human brains and kill our most important leaders. Fighters would fall as the pilots would get massive headaches and die. Insects would spy on humans and get our most important plans. It probably would be difficult to use submarines and ships as whales would wham on them occasionally. If the armies would on in forests, then the animals would win. If Vietnamese people won by knowing the ground, then think what the apes and jaguars could do.

I guess we would fight back, but we would lose.

Don't forget the mice, their so small and can hide anywhere..They'll chew threw any wires. They could make a mess out of our computer systems...Were doomed.

They can even hitch rides on birds.

Now you see the on comming destruction

Goose (Is that the plural, like the moose?) would do sacrifices and do harakiri on airplanes, jamming their motors.

I think we might want to be nicer to animals....Just incase.

I heard some story about how a group of sailing soldiers discovered an island that had a small tribe of these lemurs that had developed their own tools and textiles for cooking and such. When their king heard about them though, he had them all killed off

I think we would win...We have 2 things over them....

1. The ability to use weapons
2. We have thumbs!

They already did become as intelligent as we are. We are lifeforms that evolved to become smartest on Earth. We are those animals.

They could invent animal-usable weapons. Besides, some apes have thumbs in their feet too. And they are ambidextrous.

Then and only then we can use the sentance ''that being is of a different race''

ummm... i think if smart animals wanted to start a war with humans... I think we would just get china to use 3/4 of the people they have and give them american weapons.. then i think we would win....

Actually there are more animals then there are people in China. Way more. Besides, the bugs could go in their brains and kill them. I have one in my brain, actually. It is buzzing his comments in my head all the time.

As for the number of bugs on earth...

There are one million bugs for each person on the planet.

YEA..those bugs would eat us up...They could do a night attack and we'd be asleep....Horrible, horrible....eaten to death by bugsssssss....

They'd lay eggs in us...EWWW!! We would be their hatcheries!!!

I'd like to see their claws work a machine gun.

You would run out of bullets, and they would get you then.

With equal intelligence animals would definently rule over mankind. It is only survival of the fittest or brightest in mother nature. We already have the technology to kill the planet, most of the animals worth figthing are already in captivity. Bullets are one of the cheapest staples we have as human beings. Of course we could kill every single animal, but not if they had matched intellect and intelligence. However, man has 3000 years with this intelligence, so we may even have the advantage even if intelligence were matched. Animals are nothing to kill...very easy actually, but we would all die after the animals are all dead anyway.so tie.

Humanity would win, instincts and speed are no match for automatic machine guns and bombs.

Nukes solve all animal problems.... Pest control units and oil for the sharks and other animals... of coarse you're going to have those human animal lovers, kill them too, then for the birds.... flame throwers and bullets should be usful...

sorry but as soon as people figured out animals are becoming more intelliegent and aggressive we would have "death camps" for animals. Insects could never form a brain large enough to become this intelleigent so they cannot qualify for these animals that get quickly expanding intellect.

And i don't care how many carnivires you have and even if they are able to attck together and form strategies. Humans would have them wiped out without breaking a sweat.

yeah i dopnt see that many human casualties here. This may actually be a good idea. I think we as a species should join together and decinamagrate all aminals. We could put our differences behind for the week long killing frenzy. We may go back to the power and war mongering after the last bunny hops its last hop, but we would still always have that week of unified love across the world. Atleast unified love for the humans

well said man that was pretty funny

Lets castrate them so they can't multiply..

Ants would be our Downfall....Those bastards are smart and so many of them

"What If Animals Would Become As Intelligent As We Are?..."

Then bestiality would become legal. Outside of the South, of course.

And I think there is a difference between intelligence and enlightenment.

Fighting against animals...hmmm...

Insects/arachnids: Pesticides, flamethrowers, other incendiary weapons.
Mammals (terrestrial): Guns, poison.
Reptiles/amphibians: Cold water . And more guns.
Sea life: Nets to catch the mammals, poison, spears.

Meh.

insects alone out-populate us.. combined with the muscle of all the other animals I think we'd fall.. we just simply wouldnt be prepared for a revolt of that magnitude

You can't kill all the insects...do you know how fast they reproduce?

How about suggesting peace and cooperation since I believe the animals are intelligent enough to know how bad war is...

Maybe it would be extremely difficult to get along. I don't think any animal or human could eat meat anymore if they get together, conflicts would exist every now and then but war could only led to neverending miseries.

I wonder if dog would still be man's best friend

there is no way the animal kingdom as we know it, excluding ourselves, could overtake mankind. Here is the reason why animals could never overtake humanity. Animals do not need us to survive, we need them to survive. We also wouldnt think twice about eradicating the entire animal kingdom if it meant victory. Victors always get the pride. Pride and greed are two of the most powerful characteristics we have.

well said...

if animals were as smart as people then it would turn into something similar to planet of the apes except it would be more like planet of the evreything-else-except-humans. Since, if all the anilmals could think, they would hate us, so then they would band together and wipe us out, then they would eventually become like the world is today, except that the differernt species would be like the different countries. That would be kinda awesome....... *shifty eyes* kinda.

Just because an animal is as smart as a human doesnt mean they can hold guns or drive tanks. One tank and one bomber could destroy every animal on a single continent. Also, just because animals would be as smart as humans doesnt mean they would have the same characteristics. Humans are probably the most ruthless species on the planet. In a fight it usually comes down to who wants it more, humans want it more, and they have guns, tanks,nukes,diseases, poisens, dog collars, bio chemicals, and an ass more of deadly shit that goes boom. I could serisouly see humans poisening the worlds water supply before they would let thereselves be wiped out. Which it would never come to that.

Jesus i am taking this thread way to serious.

And the cockroaches and other insects would be still alive after you have destroyed the planet.

That makes them the winners.

This is very vague, what so animals just got started to be as intelligent as humans? And then they all banded together and attacked? Well maybe, but if every animal on earth developed a society of their own and banded against humans, humans would be mince, dead, crushed and annihilated from the face of the earth, even if insects alone started a society and decided to wipe out mankind it would be a complete success.
Lets face it, humans are weak, weak as shit, the only thing we have going for us is having a good amount of long distance running and apposeable thumbs (which every other ape has) and how de we not know that they will create specialised weapons for eachother? Some species would be specialised as spies and others infantry, airforce, support, medical attention etc etc etc. and dont forget that there is over 1 quadrillion animals on this planet so we are vastly outnumbered, they would develop weapons, artillery and just overwhelm us with sheer force and numbers.

Humans are weaklings without weapons, and intelligent animals with rifles are even more powerful then before.

Im surprised by the amount of people who are a bit too arrogant and stupid to not realise that we are so ****ed, ****ed to andromeda and back.

I guess we would first need to establish the reason & motive that the animal kingdom would want to take over the world..?

If it was to enslave humanity,maybe revenge for all the slaughter & atrocities we've done to them over history...then humanity would have a chance to fight back & survive.

But if it was to wipe us out totally from the face of the planet then diseased animals like bird flu, mad cow, rabies,swine fever,anthrax,botulism,bat lyssavirus could easily spread worldwide would be a worse case scenario of the animals sacrificing themselves to win the war.

Humans would eradicate them in question of days.

"Four legs good, two legs better."

They'd become as bad as us, and then the world would really be phucked.

In a book I read a giant bird was the God. Piers Anthony was the author.
Then a human came along with more magic then the Bird.

Civilly: I think if animals became as smart as us. We'd have massive lawsuit on our hands. -> cows and chickens.

War: we could tie or die. We'd lose most of our nourishment so we wouldn't be as strong. Nah, we'd die. If not lose over 60% of human population.

Insects kill us and we never get to notice it before the feat is done. They stop polinizing our crops and bring chaos and inegality among continents, human on human wars are abound, insects start to develop biological weaponry (bacteria inocuous to them but lethal to us) by scavenging our corpses. Then they strike our water systems and our population drops to nothingness before we even get to move.

If bacteria also become intelligent then the enemy is in our bodies and we are already phucked.

Then they charge the world
