I cannot understand why humanity feels that we are some how superior to all other creatures. We may have attributes that allow us to excel and exceed, but these attributes can also be our downfall and in my mind make us at times less than the animals we exploit. Until we recognize the value, the importance and the life experience in each living being we do not deserve to consider ourselves more evolved.
It is my hope that through the work of people like Marc Bekoff and through the inspiring lives of people like Ron and Gitie House and through the efforts of organizations like Farm Sanctuary that one day we will all come to recognize there is nothing exceptional about the human race. We are one part of whole and because of our ability to speak, reason and discover, we should be the greatest protectors of all beings.
