Like, do we feel more pain than a fish would? More euphoria than mice could feel?

    I think we are more capable of analyzing the emotions we feel, which probably makes them more intense.

    If I’m dying, and I know I’m going too die, I will be thinking about my family and what my death might do to them. If I’m a deer, I doubt I’m thinking about all that while I’m doing. I think that adds a level of intensity to it.
