It's telling you "look, a pig, don't eat it!" - not laying out some treatise on the rank of animalia by order of consciousness.
All of this is only made more hilarious by the amount of actual study done into the subject origin. Your magic book says it because someone else's magic book says it, the explanation for their magic book saying it comes down to the authors. Tons of reasons, all of them cultural.
But how do you explain the verse I mentioned in the OP - Quran 6:38- ??
It is a literal statement from the God of Islam that says animals are communities, just like us humans.
