Coco the gorilla (female) was able count up to 10, understood about 2,000 English words by ear and knew more than 1,000 words of the sign language of the deaf and dumb.
At the same time, humans, members of the Piraha tribe living in the Amazonian jungle (their skin is not black) are unable to count, and many years of attempts to teach them to count have led to nothing. And there is no future tense in the lingo of the Pirahi tribe, which makes it impossible to plan events for either one person or a group of people. The Piraha tribe has no myths, legends, or stories passed down from generation to generation.
And some sick people (any skin color), such as those with down's disease, are unable to speak. They are more stupid than this gorilla and more stupid than the members of the Piraha tribe.
Therefore, if we disregard humans' inherent loyalty to their own species, we can say that some animals are no less valuable than humans.
I come to the conclusion that intelligence is not necessary for reproduction, as hares in the forest reproduce quickly, despite the fact that they have low intelligence.
This leads to the conclusion that in humanity regularly repeats a theatrical drama, a struggle of the intelligent to give their intelligent children a place under the Sun, and a struggle of the fools to give their foolish children a place under the Sun. And it is not only intelligence that is important. Sometimes, in combat, strength, endurance, and acuty of vision are no less important than intelligence, or even more important.
Ultimately, the future of humanity depends on the quality of its offspring and on the opportunities available to them to receive an education and develop their skills.
