I always thought that what seperated humans from animals in this plane
was that we had an individualized soul where animals did not. The number
of animals that made up one group soul varied with the evolution of that
animal, e.g. there may be many bees in a bee group soul but only a few
domesticated dogs or elephants in there respective souls.
