    a structural change that’s been linked to a reduction in depression-related behavior in animals.

    On one hand, I’m curious about how they make an animal depressed, but I know better than to ask.

      I’m in the middle of a move and have to be away from my wife and dogs for about a month. For the first week or so one dog was all mopey and sad I wasn’t there, like visibly unhappy I wasn’t home. She’s a rescue and has had some separation anxiety, so it makes sense, but I bet it’s like that kind of thing. Take away whatever makes them happy is a pretty sure way to cause depression.

          Just as an FYI, you can strip paywalls by dropping links into an archive site like in your parent comment! It might not be obvious so I thought I would explicitly tell you.

          On HackerNews it’s considered good etiquette to drop the archived link in the comments if you’ve bothered to read it through such a link.
