Why are Humans So unique??

Lets go to the forest for a while..

I see beautiful flora and fauna over there. A lot of serenity, a lot of oxygen to breathe and a very peaceful environment for a holiday.

OK, lets go a little deep into the forest to see what happens. There is a lion sitting peacefully it think it had a tummy full the day before. I see deer passing by and they are little scared of the lion, but the lion is very gracious and was not bothering about the deer. The deer were having their grass and were not scared of the lion after that. After a while i see a deer running like a cheetah, because it is being chased by a tiger. From the ferociousness of the tiger in its face it can be understood that it is very hungry and decided to eat that deer.  Unfortunately the deer could not run faster than the tiger and it became a feast to the tiger.

In this case we have to accept the nature law that the deer is tigers prey. As it is its food, the tiger is not to be termed as a cruel animal. It is just eating that just for its sustenance and nothing more.If sustenance is considered as a crime then this world should be full of rocks and nothing else. Ok if you still argue that tiger is a cruel animal because it has hunt a deer and ate it, then what about the lion which did not hunt the deer? Is it not cruel? On the other hand, the plants which the deer ate also had gone through the same pain which the deer had gone through, just because the plant did not express it or you did not understand the way it expressed. In that case the deer is also a cruel animal.

Is a cruel animal superior to the others just because it hunts and eat, and  is a herbivorous animal inferior to the others just because it eats stationary stuff?  Unfortunately all the animals in a forest live in harmony, they are least worried about the other animals or they co-exist with one another without disturbing each other unless it is hungry and it is its prey.. So in a forest all the animals or living creatures are the same. The tiger has the same right time as that of a small ant in the forest.

If you just take a holistic perspective, the entire planet is the same as that of a forest and we have to just include one more thing in the ecosystem.. human. So a human being is having the same right as that of a ant in this planet. None gave him the right to change the rules of the ecosystem. He has done it out of his own will. He has assumed his own supremacy over the other species on the earth which in turn has changed many definitions. 

Coming to the relations within human beings is very peculiar. The one who eats vegetables and green leaves considers himself as supreme to the one who eats snakes and small animals. The one who eats snakes and other animals considers himself supreme or superior than the other. There is always a war of supremacy among themselves don`t know why? Why doesn`t a human being see another human being as a some of the same race.  They are highly divided, though they look similar physically, they have divided themselves, the human being living west of the globe consider themselves a superior than the ones living east of it.

And the most peculiar one is that human beings kill themselves for some reasons which are purely material or some things which is absolutely of no matter. If the conditions of human beings are put up in the forest, it would resemble like the animals which are living in the deep forest are superior than the ones which are on outskirts. A tiger killing another tiger just because the one which was being killed had a scar which the one killed did not like it.. So strange and peculiar.

We human beings are so Unique among all other living creatures in the planet. Why??
