We aren’t any of those animals though so I don’t see how it’s relevant to the discussion. We have evolved to form societies, and as such we need to work out the best frameworks given our fundamental human nature.
Other animals are in intense life and death competition with each other generally. There is not a single animal I’d rather be than a human. Non human wild animals have excruciatingly tough existences.
I think you’ve gone completely off the rails here. You said everyone should be free to just do the job they want. I pointed out that perhaps what people want to do wouldn’t match up with what actually needs to be done. You started banging on about squirrels rather than admit that what I said is actually probably the case.
I’ve never denied humans aren’t in intense competition with each other. I just don’t think it’s relevant to point to squirrels as an example of how humans should work, they clearly are very different from us.

Humans on the other hand, travel to the other half of the earth in order to kill other humans because they’re afraid that other humans will destroy their economy in the other side of the earth.
Talk to me more about the superiority of humans over animals. I’m listening

There’s nothing wrong with having fun, but if people just did what they wanted to do all the time, society would just straight up collapse.
How likely is it that people’s preferred jobs match up with exactly what is needed?

What, in the world generally? Do you genuinely want me to list every job that needs doing?

I’d rather not engage with you. This conversation has derailed into silliness.
