Hmm... I think the easy answer here is humans. I want to think of it on a long-term scale though. When aliens come back to earth and discover all of our ruins, who will they think was the highest form of life? The humans, who were probably the cause of the end of the worth, or, lets say... dolphins, who are highly intelligent, peaceful, have communication skills, and as far as I know, haven't contributed anything bad to the world.
In short, my verdict is still out... I'll keep thinking )
there's a superior being in every life. skunks for being superior in smell, monkeys in climbing trees cheetah in speed on land,in depends on what you meant.
Superior in what ways? I think if a human and a dolphin had a fight, a dolphin would win. I MEANZ SRLY!
Highest up on the food chain? We are at the top, but not any higher than bears, eagles, tigers, etc. I guess some people might eat that, but that's just weird.
Yes, we make and invent so many things, but we are also destroying the world. Some animals do no harm, and actually help out. You really have to define what you are talking about. So my verdict is not humans. Not real specific, but I might specify later...
I actually meant if the every attribute of every spieces were added up, who would total as the most superior.
using shermzx's examples,humans may be the highest on the food chain, but we are not superior in speed, ability to climb or smell (well some of us are)
Humans would not be the highest. Sure, we are the most mentally capable, but other life forms are faster, stronger, etc. More importantly, we are the only life form that is destroying the world. I'm not sure what I would say...
Did you know that wasps can organise flight paths with each other. Thats like Air Traffic Control.
They can also lay their eggs inside a catapillar, so that when their young is born, they can eat the creature from the inside. The catapillar would normally prevent this, but the eggs are covered in a virus which stop the catapillar from noticing. This virus is found no where else on Earth.
That sounds like a strong race...
...but male wasps get drunk and apples and can't even fly straight!
You may think that I am making this up, but I am not. It has been proved scientifically.
