What do you mean when you say humans are animals? Charles Darwin has proven that we are descendants from monkeys, but we are not the same. Some scientists have made studies that prove that between the chimpanzees and us, there is a 90 per cent equal chromosome, but that does not mean we have to act like chimps. The great thing that differentiates us is we have to learn more to survive that chimps do. We use more our brains, instead of chimps just using their instinct to survive. So we could say we are descendants from the monkeys, but we have evolved to become a smarter more efficient race.
We can be compared with animals but only in certain aspects of our life. People use some metaphorical comments related to animals. For example, when you are afraid people call you chicken, or when you are being really inappropriate or doing something bad they call you something like donkey (ass). But this does not mean we are a chicken or an ass. So even though people impersonates us as animals does not mean we are one. (Even though we are more complex animals). So I think just because people call us something we are not, it just impersonates us.
I think Bernardo make a very good point in this blog, we can be maybe compare with animals or say that we are animales but us as people don't think we're animals because of the way we do things and grow each time wanting to go higger in life putting always a goal infron of us.
