All you have there is a comparison of genes. Our livestock have essentially the same package of genes that we have, and for the most part the exact same variations in the very same numbers.
Where we differ most are in the way our chromosomes are linked together ~ ours are opposite the way they are linked among the Great Apes for example. Then, there's epigenetics ~ that's where chemicals external to the genes short circuit them, or link quite disparate genes together in some novel fashion. Finally, there are places in the DNA where we have "spaces" rather than copies of genes.
The complexity of life occurs at a higher level than the genes.
Two ways to look at that ~ (1) evolution, to the degree it exists, probably doesn't work very fast when it comes to the genes ~ and may have no effect at all on them. (2) The fellow taking down the parts off the shelf used a basic mix ~ Cosmic Standard Number 1. Then he welded in some other stuff.

“We interbred with them (Neanderthals) until they disappeared.”
Apparently they resurfaced in Blair House.
