Are they? Some primates have better working memory than we do, for example. Of course we would never confuse another species for a human, but I also think we would not confuse a domestic house cat for anything else despite them coming in many shapes, sizes and colors, so I assume you mean something more profound than just that we look visually different.
- matz1 6y ago>Of course we would never confuse another species for a human Yes, this is what I mean. There is seemingly no organism/species that I would confuse whether to classify it as human or not human but I'm pretty sure there are species/organism albeit is rare that I would be in hard time categorizing it as cat or not cat. Another example is human male and human female, albeit is rare but there is some human population that I would have a hard time deciding which category to put.
- mannykannot 6y agoIt is highly likely that there once were intermediate species. When examined in sufficient detail, the line between ancestor and descendant species blurs.
- Jweb_Guru 6y agoEven if you might confuse a domestic house cat for some other creature, I'm pretty sure another domestic house cat would not, which is the relevant point of comparison here :)
