To answer the first part of your question I don't think animals think the way you and I do. Survival instinct and the propagation of species is built into all species but it has nothing to do with being or thinking that your species is special. That is more of a matter of evolving through natural selection.

There is nothing people will not maintain when they are slaves to superstition
