I think I have to go along with Douglas Adams (Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy). Human beans think they're the dominant, most intelligent species. And dolphins thing they are, because they didn't invent war, digital watches, cell phones, or politics.

But they're both wrong. It's mice.

Mice are conducting all kinds of experiments on human beings in laboratories all over the world, but they have the humans convinced that they are the ones who are conducting the experiments!
