Answer:
Yes, if we want a better world for all species and humans we should definitely change the way we view and treat animals. How we treat of animals reflects the way we think about them. When we humans condone, allow, support and/or profit from the imprisonment, subjugation and mass murder of animals, we are evidently not thinking about nor treating animals very well. A very big part of the problem is that we think of us humans as completely different/more important than animals allowing humans to convince them/ourselves that it is ok to use animals as resources, as objects.
I hope this helps :D
