Ever wondered?

If animals are smarter when it comes to certain things? For example they follow Gods plan of mating female & male {not }, animals protect their young {not murderous parents}, animals don't try and mate with younger animals {not like some pedophiles} and animals don't kill just because {like murderers}. I am not bashing anyone just questioning if anyone else feels similar to the way I do. As the humane race goes we are supposed to be more intelligent and as for these certain subjects animals seem to be showing a higher intellect what are your thoughts?
