Human/Non Human Animals

In my opinion I think the differences between human and non human animals is logic and reasoning. Non human animals for the most part tend to just go off of instinct not really thinking through the consequences of their actions. They are similar in the sense that both adapt to their surroundings and have this sense of protection for others of their own kind. Both would protect their family in times of dangerous situations such as predators who may want to kill and eat them. Another similarity as that both human and non human animals are taught basic survival techniques and lessons when they are young and these skills stay with both groups for their entire lives in order to survive on a daily basis. I do think that human animals have more of a sense of morality than non human animals which in part is greatly due to where they live and interact.
