Nice article. I remember learning the same DNA that allows photosynthesis in trees, is in our bodies converting food to energy. That was profound to me. Anyone with a heart who has had a pet can see their emotional similarities to ours. When dogs and cats "talk" their inflection is the same, rising at the end if asking for something, harsh and sharp if distressed. How people can work in jobs in animal testing is beyond me. So much of it is completely unnecessary. I strongly feel our disconnection from the natural world is responsible for much of our psychosis.
