The Animal Agenda (S12E12)

Traditionally, extraterrestrial beings are often imagined as resembling humans, but could this be a narrow perspective? What if intelligent life from other worlds bears a striking resemblance to various Earth animals? Furthermore, might some of our planet's wildlife have extraterrestrial origins? Exploring ancient civilizations, we discover a common reverence for animals, with deities frequently depicted with animalistic characteristics. The ancient Indian texts celebrate gods taking the forms of elephants, monkeys, and serpents. Sumerian art features deities with avian heads, while Egyptian culture revered animals so deeply that they mummified them. Proponents of the Ancient Astronaut theory propose that specific species may have been introduced to Earth by alien beings rather than evolving through natural selection.
