Answer 1

Answer:

Animals are not more grateful than humans because they don't have conscience. That's why we differ from animals. For example, a monkey might steal your banana and run away. A monkey has a brain but doesn't think as a human because of a lack of conscience. Rescued animals can’t either due to humans being anthropomorphizing animals with a level of human reason they do not possess. Gratitude presupposes understanding a kind act when its cause isn't always visibly apparent, reasoning which individual was the cause of that act, and then feeling (human terms) a sense of appreciation for the cause

Explanation:

Answer 2

Do animals have gratitude? I think its still an open question. But it is clear that some animals, such as chimpanzees and other non-human primates, seem to possess at least a more basic form of proto-gratitude, based on their ability to keep track of favors given to and received from different individuals.
