A puppy license is a special law of nature that protects children from violence (7 photos)

If you are over 18 years old, then I have sad news for you. Your puppy license has expired! And, unfortunately, it will never be possible to extend it. What, is this the first time you've heard about this? Don't worry, we'll tell you everything now!





Well, wait a minute, you little scoundrel! When you grow up, I’ll give you a job as Kuzka’s mother!

The puppy license is not the idea of greedy bureaucrats. This is a gift from nature itself! Therefore, it exists not only in human society. Almost all animals that lead herd, flock, herd, school and other types of group life activities have this very license in the charter of their community. So what is its essence?

In simple terms, a puppy license is the right of a cub to misbehave with impunity. Within reasonable limits, of course. A baby can annoy adults in every way, flirt with them, scream, squeak, run, rage and do almost anything that their childish mood pleases.



Hey, kid, haven’t you heard the fairy tale about gray wolves? We're actually biting our sides!

Until a certain age, all the older individuals of the group turn a blind eye to most of the children's pranks. Such a license is issued secretly immediately after birth and applies to all young animals of the group, regardless of the social status of the mother. So even if suddenly a cub from a low-ranking individual begins to pester the leader, in most cases this will be put on hold.





That very magical time when you can play horse with dad/mom.

The fact is that all babies are born without any concept of “correct” behavior. Both a puppy and a human child have only basic instincts and reflexes that they need to develop. This is how nature intended - children should study, play, run and misbehave, regardless of the species. This is how they get to know the world and get to know themselves. And all animals understand that young animals cannot be immediately driven into a social framework, otherwise they will not learn anything. Because everyone should have a childhood.



All children are the same. Regardless of the look, they experiment with hairstyles!

A cub's puppy license is backed up by two things. The first is the hormonal status of the individual. There are no “adult” hormones in the baby’s body, such as testosterone or estrogen. Unlike us, animals perfectly read physiological age by smell.



Guys, look what I can do without hooves!

The second is behavior. To confirm their smallness, cubs use a set of poses, movements and sounds that seem to say to adults: “I’m still a child, don’t touch me!” Puppies plop down on their stomachs, curl their tails, lick their elders' lips, foals lay back their ears, open and close their mouths, calves turn their heads away - each species has its own special gestures. Seeing such signals, adults retreat and stop getting angry.



Well, it sat on my neck and won’t get off now!

Of course, if the child goes beyond what is permitted and begins to go too far, the elders can lightly teach the scoundrel a lesson. We are not talking about physical impact - the cub is lightly bashed and put in place to calm it down.



Why sit on your neck? Better right on the head!

Real punishments for offenses begin with the animal’s puberty. When their hormones are raging, adults stop perceiving them as babies. At the same time, the puppy's license expires. The baby turns into a teenager and begins his struggle for a place in the hierarchy.
