So, I havent read everything yet, but I do want to know something. What makes humans so special? I mean, were an animal like the rest, right? Not only that, but maybe one of the worst, since we destroy nature for ourselves...

As for who to save, thats very situational. The question is usually your own pet vs a random child. But is the random child in your house? Are you responsible for them (babysitting)? Or do you actually know the child? Or do you happen to hear the child crying or calling for help? Are the parents or family alive? Is it safe to reach them? And how do you know you wont be able to go back and save them? In the scenario, the building collapses after you leave. But most people wouldnt know for sure IRL...

As for pet parents, there are plenty who love their pet like a child. Especially if youve had them from basically when they were born. And raised them. And there are many people who dont want, nor can have, children...

It doesn't matter if you don't know the person. The value of a stranger's life vastly outweighs your dog. A dog does not have near the same capacity for emotion, perception, love, ect.
