We are just animals. We have higher intelligence but this does not mae us special. We just evolved in this way first and in the future any other species may evolve in a similar path. People don't consider a shark a higher form of life even though it's remained relatively unchanged for so many years.

No they don't but that doesn't mean it gives us the right to go and torture and animal because we can't communicate with it.
