But, if freedom means that you get to do whatever you wish to do, do you think wild animals are much freer than us, humans?
Are we just kidding ourselves as the freest civilized animal? or the wild ones have achieved freedom a lot before us?
Animals could be free but still restrained within their confined environment to some extent. While humans are also free depending on what area you are actually debating on. Humans could free in all ramifications but not free minded, i still call that freedom.
