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?

In addition to all the biology and evolution responses, the reality is that humans do have incredibly fast reaction times. It’s just that the vast majority of humans don’t practice them, and those that do practice them in very specific ways.
Fencers react to their opponents so quickly that cameras couldn’t keep up until the past few decades. StarCraft players have hundreds of actions per minute. Boxers can hit bags most people can’t track moving.
But most people don’t do anything which requires fast reaction times. Even with driving the difference between a tenth second and a quarter second reaction is generally negligible. And watching tv and filling out tps reports don’t require any reaction speed.
