A: We feel pain to prevent ourselves from further injury. I’d imagine animals adapted to react to harmful stimuli, such as heat like we have. Obviously, mammals are easier to relate to, and I’m sure you have seen/heard a pet or animal react to pain. I think it is easier to tell ourselves animals do not feel pain as we do because it lessens the guilt we feel from say, cooking a live lobster. Maybe animals, like starfish, do not feel pain as we do. If a starfish loses a leg, it grows one back. Curling itself up into a ball, and cringing in pain will not increase its survival, so maybe it doesn’t feel intense pain. If you, however, lost an arm, one would not grow back, and pain would let you know to take care of it.
