In a lot of ways we haven't though. I think not putting humans in the animal category ignores the fact that humans can be extremely animalistic at times, especially individually.

Maybe even more as groups, as can be seen from the world politics.

I mean that's true, but when that does happen, they're called out on it using "being an animal" in a derogatory form, as in "We're better than that, you've stooped to the level of animals with your actions"
