How do animals have so quick reaction time compared to human?

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?

Animals typically don’t have as many complex thoughts as humans so they’re mostly focused on their wants and needs for survival. Additionally they are more sensitive to specific stimuli such as motions in water or smells. Humans are also not prey animals anymore so we’ve gotten lazy and don’t hone our reflexes as much. You can however improve the reaction time of a person through training.
