Well, humans, hyenas, humpback whales, honey bees and humming birds all have those same preoccupations, but are all "different in kind". What is the significance of that?-Hyenas, humpbacks, bees, elephants, humming birds, all have what we have to a degree, but we are different in kind (Adler). Where are the elephant Mozarts? the Bach bees? The Shakespeare sheep? The animals a have a smidgen of what we have. You are equating an ant hill with Mt. Everest.
