The only quality that truly and definitively separates humans from other nonhuman animals, is the capacity for advanced, abstract reason and logic. Even forms of pseudo-language have been identified in dolphins and possibly elephants.

Are humans truly more advanced or civilized than animals?Despite our big heads, and our advancements in technology, how are we any better than beasts? Animals live as part of the planet, only taking what they need, yet we continue to take until there's nothing left.
