I know some animals. They are different than humans. Actually the word animal covers a wide variety of living things. Maybe we could just say humans are not animals, but animals are animals. :-)
Apes fall into the animal category. Humans do not.

Why aren't humans animals? What trait do they lack that makes them not animals?

In biology, a human is an animal. I hope that's OK.
