Frans de Waal's books on the chimps he studied at the same facility, such as Chimpanzee Politics, are incredibly eye-opening from a r/likeus perspective.

Mama was one of the chimps in the group he researched. In her day, she was one formidable primate. She was even something of a kingmaker—her recognition of a would-be alpha male would help swing all the adult females over to that chimp's side.

It's really sad to hear about her death after reading two de Waal books where she features so prominently!

For pretty much every animal we eat, there are examples like this. Maybe not a task just like this, but you get the point. We have historically and constantly underestimated the intelligence and resourcefulness of most non-human animals. Even "dumb" animals like chickens and fish perform impressive behaviors. E.g., BBC article on chickens and check out this book by an animal behaviorist about fish.

And at any rate, whether they are "smart" or not doesn't affect their ability to suffer or their desire/capacity to not suffer. I think what /u/jeegte12 was trying to say was not really about a false dichotomy like killing a dumb person versus a smart person, but rather that we should avoid killing people regardless of their intelligence-- because even a dumb person wants to live and can feel pain and suffering.
