>why don't we use animals in warfare?
We do, faggot.

>>2477309
Wouldn't it save human lives to have animal soldiers instead?

Didn't they used to release monkeys onto minefields to detonate all the explosives before the soldiers crossed?

>>2477432
no you're thinking of Soviet convict battalions in WW2

>not mentioning the obvious horses and dogs

We do, and we have tried the wackier things you suggested and they didn't work. Also animals ar cute and humans aren't. ex. The soviets tried to train dogs to run under tanks with bombs strapped to them, but they only had russian tanks to train them with so in combat they dive straight under the soviet tanks

Also, cat's with suicide vests would be like dropping retarded bombs that are just as likely to run away from your target as towards it.

would it be possible to selectively breed all the smartest gorillas like the language gorilla that had an IQ of 80 or some shit until you had gorillas smart enough to become marines. if they can teach a gorilla sign language im sure it can learn combat

>>2477634
Most Gorillas are non-violent, they are bad fighters, just strong. Chimps would make better fighters. But a ape is too dumb for marksmanship. I'm sure you could learn them to throw grenades, but that's useless. Apes are slow breeding animals, at the edge of extinction.
You better use draft, and assign human scum (criminals, junkies...) to this type of task.

>>2477634
her high intelligence was due to teaching, not heredity. Breeding gorillas that you've taught to be smart won't produce smarter gorillas.

even breeding naturally smart gorillas together won't produce smart offspring. Because intelligence isn't a single heritable trait. It's thousands of them.

but I suppose if you were intelligent enough to understand all that you would already, huh?

OOH OOH HAH HAH AHHH AHHHHH!!!!
who's a good monkey. you're a good monkey

>>2477448
The difference?

>>2477669

Soviets did try to use dogs as living anti tank mines during WW2. Didn't work out well.

Back off, this was MY anecdote>>2477622

Back in the middle ages, dead animals used to be flung over walls during sieges to spread disease.

Pigeons are based.

>>2477626
What about Snakes with suicide vests, they will try to tunnel in ove of the ISIS caves to get cool.

>>2477654
What about Benobo monkeys? They're rather intelligent, just horny.

You never heard of wars in Africa?

>>2477789
>benobo
>monkeys

>>2477946
That'll be 2 internets for you sir

>>2478580
Cladistically they're monkeys, the old world monkeys are closer to apes than they are to the new world monkeys

>dead diseased pigs
biological warfare is a war crime

>>2477634
they would be like a shittier version of regular soldiers.
whats the point?
