My dog was very spooked one day in the forest. We came across some
wooden statues, about 4 to 5 feet tall, looking somewhat like slim
version of the Easter Island (stone) carvings.

Completely inanimate, yet very eerie. The dog started to bark, and
could not be calmed down. We went off and came back the same way. This
time the dog did not get agitated at all.

In what sense did the dog know the "meaning" of the wooden figures?

Gordon,
