Small vent type..thing

You know what crosses my mind often? What really bothers me? Humans have forgotten that we are just as much apart of nature as every other animal. We are forced to pretend we are something other than another animal species.
"Don't interact with that creatire, it's a wild animal and you're disturbing it's natural..whatever"
Ummm...so am I. I am a wild animal..I coexist with All natures animals and have every right as a part of this world to do so.
But for some reason not only have humans deemed themselves above other creatures, they have put up a barrier to the point that we pretend to have some sort of responsibility to other animals or to prevent interaction with others.
Why? Why is it "unnatural" for humans to interact with other "wild" animals? We interact with dogs, which were created from interaction with wild animals.
We pose a threat to others, but see them as the threat.
I saw a video and it ticked me off a little. A baby bear walked into someones open yard to sniff at their tomatoes. The woman first states that the bear has balls for coming into "her" yard. Um..hello? The outside world doesn't just belong to you. Technically you've invaded his space. Then her child starts Screaming to death, her response is to tell him or her all is well because mom will shoot the bear... Good job. Killing animal=safety.
And again, we separate ourselves from being apart of nature. We are above the natural order and everything else is in our way.
Why can't we just accept ourselves as just as much animals as the rest?
I think we are here TO interact with create relations with other animals. We feel more empathy and conscious closeness to each other and all of earth's creatures than any other animal. Why? Because we are supposed to. We have room to learn alot more from other creatures and retain this knowledge. Instead, we have deemed ourselves better, more entitled to the earth than apart of it
Perhaps that's the distant Native American in me. But i really will never understand.
