It astounds me that people legitimately assume that the other animals on this planet don't feel pain. It seems incredibly obvious to me that they would, or that we should at least be assuming they would.
I think only the extremely simple life doesn't feel pain, but then you have arrived on a microscopic level, where some tiny creature is getting eaten while eating themselves.
