I’ve seen so many videos where animals have(seemingly) instant reaction time and can escape fast from predators, how is it possible and why humans don’t have same reaction time?

So a TL;Dr to this would be:
Organisms experience time differently. A fly experiences time much slower than us, meaning they can process more information at a shorter time.
If you had ever that feeling, that everything was moving in slow motion or how everything felt super sped up, this is how other animals experience time constantly. Turtles have an even sicker skill: their perception of time on land differs from their time perception in water.
So if you want to catch a fly, don’t move quickly and sudden. Move slowly. The slower time perception of the fly will make your hand appear to be almost stationary, allowing you to simply grab it.
In other words: other animals perceive more time per time
