Answer 4

There is very little to make us human, but for our genetic traits. Elephants can feel sorrow, chimps can become happy or angry and there is some evidence to suggest that even rats might be able to recognize their own reflection. I would suggest perhaps, our ability to recognize our own faults as a species, not just individuals, might mark us apart from other species?

Answer 5

On one hand .. being part of the human race is having the right DNA and other genetic stuff.

Overtime I have come to believe that there are less differences between the critters and mankind.

the critters often feel love, pain, happyness, and communicate.  But they do not read, write and have as good of cognition and memory.

but both the critters and individuals can be inhumane - mean cruel nasty .. human and critter trates, but usually to be avoided.

I use the word critters to be a little silly and put your mind in a different space than if I used the word animals.
