I guess I don't take my moral code from animals, else I'd be saying it's OK for people to do horrendous things like rape, murder, torture, eating each others' children etc.

We have higher-order thinking as well as choice - can use those to choose not to cause terrible suffering to sentient beings where we don't have to.
