You should try googling mate! Wolves have been observed to hunt with crows (crows locate it, wolves kill it, crows get the leftovers), their coexistence is in fact to the point where crows play with wolf puppies (chasing games and tug of wars have been observed)! Due to this cooperation wolves have evolved and do recognize and treat these members of their packs differently! Which you too can observe if you own a dog, as it does not treat you like another dog! In opposition to cats, who despite also living in colonies do not cooperate with other species nor with each other really (with exemptions to raising their little ones, they supervise each other if the mom and dad goes hunting at the same time). They are not really capable of recognizing other than prey, cat, danger

Humans being categorised as not danger is a bit far from them being literally seen as other cats

…yes, thats why they view us as cats as we are too large to be hunted by them?
