Humans don't respect even their own species, good luck with respect for other sentient species...

Most of us actually do. Not all humans respect all other humans all the time, but most of the time we behave quite decently against each other.

Neither do other animals...? We're not all that different.

Most other animals won't fight to the death. They might fight far enough to determine a victor, but usually the fight or conflict is over quickly or before the conflict actually takes place.

Humans on the other hand will pursue the illogical course of self-destruction for the slight chance of "moral victory."

Animals have not created the concept of "wealth" and "money" to justify the death of other animals. In this regard, other animals are way ahead of our species.

Depressing, but no less true for that.
