The wording of the question is unclear. However. Human beings are the only life form on this planet capable of higher brain functioning that can determine ethical or moral “right and wrong” implications. And the consequences of such decisions.
All other life forms only act based on instinct,other than arguably some higher level forms of monkeys/apes who show signs of being able to be trained, to understand right and wrong, but cannot always reliably be trusted to make the right decision in “complex” times of duress. (Lack of food,mishandling of said animals by their caretakers be it a zookeeper or a janitorial staff that interacts with them and harasses/mistreats said animal.
Referencing the unclear nature of the question, since, “Human Beings are the only animals that are accountable before law is why too narrow”….
It could be interpreted as “way too narrow,” which is addressed in paragraph 1. Higher brain functionality to determine right from wrong, (why laws exist), is a solely Human Being capacity. If that’s the wording implied and typo’ed, the answer would be that Human Beings are responsible for the actions of animals under their control. (Leash, not letting Lions/Tigers/Dangerous Wildlife in Captivity roam freely/without close monitoring to prevent injury to others.
if the question was typo’ed as “way too narrow.” It is again the same answer due to higher functioning brain capacity (Humans) and the inability to determine right from wrong (other animals.)
