Humans care more for their own species out of instinct as well as familiarity. You probably love your family and friends more than strangers, correct? The same tends to extend to people and the rest of the human species. In addition, we're programmed to care for our own first. It's instinct to care for those of your own social group, and with a global expansion of communications people feel closer to one other than ever before.

Unfortunately, this people-first attitude often gets extended into animal cruelty... saving a kid instead of a dog is expected and commendable, but exploiting animals for profit because "people come first" is an unfortunate side effect of this mindset ):
