By far. We didn't get to be #1 by fucking around, and we didn't get to be #1 without all that dominating evolution lingering around. We're so good at it, we're predators to ourselves because there's no prey left to dominate. Every other species dies farmed or as a hobby.

But I can say, that if I were die be prey to something, I'd rather it be to a human. Everything else starts eating you before you're even dead lol.
