It is not clear to me exactly what you're asking. I think you want to know what some of the differences are between humans and (other) animals. Human seem to have a few cognitive abilities that outstrip those of other animals, most notably language and abstract reasoning. There is a great deal of debate in some quarters about to what degree other animals have these abilities. No one disputes, however, that even if other animals have them to some degree, they are muc hstronger in humans.

I ve been doing some research on this subj. It seems to me that animals lack self awarness though this is a very controversial subject.

Hermina....I'm never going to send you to the store for a chicken, because you'd come home with an old lady :-)
