I'll deny due to the huge amount of variables. Such as abused dog's life vs drug lords life and such things as an easy example.

Really does depend on the animal and the person... like if it's a serial killer vs. a dog that pulled a baby out of a burning house, I'm going with the dog.

There really is no difference only the fact that we are consciously aware, we relate to eachother because we are the same and put anything else beneath us so of course our lives are worth much more than an animals.

he wasn't even going to. if you watch the footage, he liked the kid. he died confused because he did nothing wrong. they murdered him just cause they were racist and assumed the big strong gorilla was going to kill the kid, even though he was acting peaceful and kind.

Well since I don't appoint myself judge of the worth of someone's life, I'm not going to say X person over an animal or an animal over Y person. I wouldn't want to think that my actions were directly linked to the loss of any life. Animal or human. But I think I would choose human. But until I am in that situation there's no real way to know what I would do.

If that gorilla wanted that kid would of died. In the cases of kids vs animals I'd pick kids, there's potential there.

In the case of an adult, I don't know. Depends on what kind of person they are. I'd save an animal vs a murderer or pedo any day of the week.

what did I just say though? he didn't want the kid to die. you are being racist against gorillas. if I had a time machine I'd go back in time and do a vulcan nerve pinch on the shooter before he fires his gun.

so if a very nice and loving dog is in a burning building and a serial killer human is in there too, you would drag out the serial killer and let the dog die?

There are some horses worth hundreds of thousands of dollars. Plenty of other exotics worth more. There are plenty of people that aren't worth that much. And yes I know what tc meant but I don't think life inherently has value.

If it's a serial rapist/murderer/etc.'s life vs. like, a beloved community therapy dog, I'm gonna pick the dog. The instances where an animal's life is worth more than a human's are extremely uncommon, but 99/100 still doesn't mean "always".

usually, maybe. but definitely not always. human life isn't inherently sacred. serial killers, child molestors, sadistic torturer types who keep people chained in their cellars, etc... I would literally rather save mosquitos over them and I want mosquitos to go extinct

I mean, we can bring up extreme conditions all we want I guess.
My main point is, I'd find more value in the human life the vast majority of the time.

The topic title literally says "always" though. So if there is even one scenario where the human is not worth more than the animal, the statement is false.

Ya, but the scenarios are hypothetical ones that are extreme. I mean, it makes for a bad poll.

But yes, you're right

The poll itself is hypothetical, and speaks in a definitive, "all or nothing" manner. So the extremes have to be considered just as much as the non-extreme.

Kill a person, go to jail for life max.
Kill an animal, go to jail for a year or two max.

It should stand to reason that the opposite would be true, where saving a person would have much more inherent value than saving an animal.
