Many animal activists claim that animals are just like humans, but we are just more intelligent. According to speakingofresearch.com, humans have many different physical and mental abilities. For example, animals do not understand the concept of ethics, empathy, and compassion. These are the most needed factors to create a stable society. Humans have much more potential. Therefore, humans deserve more rights. Our empathy, compassion, and ethics are also the driving forces to help suffering animals. These are traits that animals lack.
