However, recent studies have shown that this isnt true. Just like people, animals favor one side or the other.In Ireland, scientists studied a group of 42 cats. They gave them three tasks. One was to get a delicious piece of fish out of a bottle. They found that the male cats preferred to use their left paw, and the female cats preferred to use their rights.Being left-or right-handed isnt limited (有限的) to arms and legs. It can include eyes, ears, claws, and even tails. In Italy, scientists discovered that dogs wag their tails to the right when they see something that they like. When they see something that they dont like, their tails go to the left. There are lots of fun examples. Left-handed dolphins swim in a different direction around the pool. Elephants like to swing their trunks in one direction. Even snakes prefer to curl up only one way.Many people believe that polar bears are left-handed. They say, for example, that polar bears cover their black nose with their right paw, which helps them hide in the snow when they are hunting. Then they can sneak up(慢慢靠近) on a seal, and their left paw will be free to catch it.Scientists, however, disagree. Some have watched polar bears for thousands of hours. They never saw the bears cover their nose during a hunt. They also saw no evidence(根据) that they were left-handed. Without taking any notice of this, many websites continue to say that polar bears are left-handed.Scientists are still learning about animals and their behaviors. The next time you see an animal, whether its your pet cat or an elephant, try figuring out yourself which it prefers - left or right.36 .
