> Most animals are different from most others, we're just different enough to feel that we're somehow special. That's probably a similarity we share with other species, and I'd expect to a similar degree. We own pets, but sometimes we see cross-species adoption (and friendship*) in the wild, too. * or at least "alliance", given we can't in general read minds yet, just a few special cases with fMRI machines etc.
