Walt Whitman, one of the most famous poets in America, wrote “why do I need your paces when I myself out-gallop them?” (line 25).

Anthropocentrism has humans at the top of the scale, and animals below them, when they should be equal, considering both are living creatures. Walt Whitman and H.G. Wells both wrote with relation
