Why do individual humans have such unique faces while animals have faces that are all similar? Is this purely perception? Are we actually just as similar looking to each other as the animals are?

Animals do look different, too, we just don’t spent enough time observing them to notice the differences, and we’re just less attuned to differences of different species. But if you were a farmer or zookeeper and regularly interacted with a group of animals you’d learn the differences in their faces.
