    non-human animals feel pain and don’t want to die.

    we don’t know that any non-human animal understands personal mortality, so we need to clear up an ambiguity in your syntax there. the don’t even know if they know they colud die. if you don’t know you could want something, to say that you don’t want it is almost tautological. we can’t say teher is any evidence they want not to die, though.
