Talking animals aren't SF?

 I'm not sure Pachelbel's Canon (which I do like) is SF either.....

Well talking animals are certainly speculative.
But the Island of Dr.Moreau and how that bad man blended humans
and animals.  Dr.Doolittle could talk to the animals and they to he.
And Cordwainer Smith was not the first to use uplifted animals
like C'Mell to stir a storylline.
Other folks have uplified animals, David Brin I think
though my ankle hurts to much to walk across the room and
get a check on that then I remember I was connected to the
WWW and checked from my comfy task chair. Uplife Wars series
is by David Brin.
