We humans tend to think high about ourselves (compared to animals)
What makes you think animals don't think high about themselves?
We are ashamed of our sexual desire so we developed complex system of rationalizations that we call "love".
Humans developed love? Seriously! Did we also develop gravity? Love is a universal (read: not limited to or developed by humans) attribute that we express to one extent or the other.

Developed in the same sense horned animals developed horns.
Inevitable name for an ancient concept of attachment.

Speak for yourself, I ain't ashamed of shit. Also, go buy a Labrador puppy. Or maybe google something like "monogamous animals" and/or "do animals feel love"
We channel our hunting instinct in FPS computer games, or professions such as soldier or policeman. We are ashamed of our sexual desire so we developed complex system of rationalizations that we call "love". And we don't want to admit that we enjoy dominating others, so we call the jobs where we are in charge, such as governor or mayor "public service".
