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?

The same reason the internet is faster in small countries than large ones.
Light goes into the eye, processed by the eye, generate a reaction, send that signal to the muscle.
All that is an actual physical process happening. And like all physical processes it takes time. The signal has to travel the further it travels the longer the reaction.
Humans reaction times are the same as animals of a similar size, whole faster reacting animals are much smaller.
