Human/Nonhuman Animals

I feel that there are major distinguishing factors between humans and animals . Humans thrive in their environment by adapting their surroundings to suit their needs while animals adapt to the habitat they are presented with. Humans thrive and build and most animals just survive day-to-day. We are just one species, but have so many different languages and ways to communicate. Humans also think of new and efficient ways to destroy things and kill other humans. If you want to use Catholic Church teachings, then only humans have a conscience and know right from wrong. There isn't one sole reason out there that makes us different from animals.
