Yes. We do. Significantly more. It’s our only power. We aren’t stronger or faster or more vicious, we cannot fly or breed dozens of humans at a time or puke honey. We can’t swim the ocean depths or swing through the trees.

But we sure can think, understand and create. For better or worse.

I’m all for not underestimating animals. They are sentient like us.

But not at the cost of dismissing the human animal.

We have very good color eyesight, are unusually flexible when it comes to weather, are pretty omnivorous and disease resistant, and we're absolutely unbeatable endurance runners.

IIRC we actually smell as well as dogs too, if we get down to floor level.

Don't forget being able to throw accurately.

Or juggle.

We're also pretty good long-distance runners.
