I don't know about that. It's not like we can ask other animals their opinions of themselves.
In the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, for example, Dolphins and humans both thought themselves superior to the other based on the same criteria but having different perspectives as to what constituted greatness in those criteria, ie. man believed that building projects, war, &c. made them great, whilst dolphins just splashed around in the water, where as dolphins viewed splashing around made them superior to man and his wars and buildings.
If you believe it, question it. If you question it, get an answer. If you have an answer, does that answer satisfy reality? Does it satisfy you? Probably not. For no one else will agree with you, not really.
