Straw man. I never asked who is better, specially because that word doesn't mean anything on its own. Better than lions in which aspect?

Lions are much better than me at hunting, but on making moral judgements that aim to minimize harm, I think I am better.

If you go down the road of basing your morals on what lions do, you will end up trying to justify why infanticide is a good practice when a father dies. Or why might makes right.

I agree that humans are arrogant. That is pretty evident in the way they treat other species.
