When I was growing up this was much debated. Human hubris wanted us to be "special" to justify our ill treatment of other Earthlings.
We are all part of the Animal Kingdom. 5 minutes of casual observation can leave no doubt of their intelligence, emotions, problem solving skills, social skills, etc.
Are they self-aware in the universe and know they have a limited lifespan? Who knows? Unless they say so, we can not know for sure.
I would argue many people are still surprised when they die.
