Why do you think native cultures have so much more respect for animals than modern cultures do?

Firstly, I know what you mean but you've misused the term "native". You mean 'traditional' or 'well established'.
Essentially the answer lies in the attachment traditional cultures have to agriculture, superstition and spirituality. Traditional, farming cultures have respect for nature due to how directly they depend on it for food (farming), shelter (wood for houses), clothes (animal skins) and security (walls of trees).
"Modern" cultures (also see: Western cultures and Capitalist cultures) are separated from their dependency on nature through the use of supermarkets and reliance on non-natural infrastructure like road networks and the power grid. Because these cultures use industrial concrete for transport and shelter, and supermarkets for food and clothes the significance of nature is mentally devalued.
It is worth saying that both cultures are equally as reliant on nature, but it is the direct reliant that heightens respect.
