    Kinda and not really, simultaneously. We are good at adapting and we have a really high ceiling intelligence-wise (at least compared to other species). Cats will never have the capability for building houses, cars or space shuttles. They just don’t have the capacity. Neither do birds, fish or any other species, except us.

    It’s kinda ridiculous to tell yourself that’s not true, just look around yourself. We might still be dumb apes after all, but still we are a million times smarter than a cat or an eagle. If we wanted, we could wipe out all life on the planet, and there is nothing any animal could do about it. It’s cruel and I obviously don’t want that, but it’s the truth.

      The point is that being able to hunt isnt as easy or brainless as its made out to be. Not that we humans arent intelligent
