Samuel Clements (Mark Twain) often showed his characters in embarrassing situations caused by their own foolishness.
Explanation:
Clemens is saying that people can be more foolish than animals in their actions and that they should be aware of their own foolishness. He also says so in a humorous way.
Whether animals blush or not under emotional stress is probably not something scientifically tested.
