I had this thought when imagining our own hubris and arrogance, and how well even creatures that we deem simple and lesser can teach us so much about cooperation and altruism. Things like bees and ants

Then, it gets you thinking: do we spend so much time trying to feel superior to uneducated or less intellectually-inclined people, that we genuinely forget to humble ourselves and realize that they still know so many things that are genuinely worth learning?

In my opinion, this matches what Confucius said, "三人行 必有我師焉". It literally means, "three persons walk together, there must be (at least) one that can be my teacher/master".
