How should we treat animals?



very much depends on the animal, because then it can be any of the following options (with examples):
-murder indiscriminately (seagulls, most insects, etc)
-occasionally treat nicely (foxes, opossums, pigs, etc)
-become friends (cats, dogs, etc)
-don't touch with a 50 foot pole (any type of otter, seagulls, wolverines/badgers, hippos)
-protect but stay away (most endangered animals)
