We are not only part of the animal kingdom, our egos tell us that we are at the top of the heap.

When you consider some of the disgusting things people do, I'd say the jury is still out on whose at the top.

I wouldn't suggest that a chimp, for example, doesn't have cognition.  It recognizes itself in a mirror.  They may not be able to string words together like us but they are highly intelligent.  Even that doesn't distinguish us, however, we clearly are the brightest of the bright .
