Human/Nonhuman Animals
There are plenty of similarities in human and nonhuman animals such as their determination to survive and the way they communicate with each other. But besides that, there are plenty of differences between the two. For one, physical characteristics are obviously not something humans have in common with non human animals. There is resemblance between humans and non humans such as humans and monkeys, but there are still distinct differences. The main difference I see between humans and non humans is their goal in life. In my opinion, non humans live to survive. They go by day by day looking for different ways to feed themselves, find shelter, and care for their families. On the other hand, humans who have a life goal to just survive would be looked at as a moral patient. Everybody seems to think that a goal must be accomplished by humans such as moving up in their job, or giving back to the community. Whatever it is, humans must do more than just eat, sleep, and protect their family; which is what nonhuman animals do.

I agree with what Ashley said about the difference in goals in life. Both human and nonhuman animals have a basic goal of food, safety, and survival, but humans push further and seek to achieve the most they can out of their lives. Simply "surviving" is not the most prestigious lifestyles in our society, so we all have different levels of luxury we set out to get to.
