Animals survive purely off instinct. Although humans have other factors in their behaviors, many behaviors are based off of the same instinctual value,. i.e., a monkey will fight to the death to protect their offspring, as will many human beings.
Animals and humans share many behaviors. A fascinating PBS film entitled "Monkey in the Mirror" discusses that topic. Recent studies of animals in the wild have also revealed that humans and animals also share emotions. Another great PBS production to watch is "Inside the Animal Mind". It is difficult to watch the behavior of chimps and not see a human connection in our similar behaviors.
