Animals and insects suddenly are as smart as humans, which species should we try to befriend first before a world war between species occur?

To me, the first should be ants, they’re practically everywhere and there’s a lot of them

Beetles. 25% of species we've discovered are beetles.

British evolutionary biologist and geneticist J.B.S. Haldane quipped that if a god or divine being had created all living organisms on Earth, then that creator must have an “inordinate fondness for beetles.”

God has beetles backs, so we get beetles on our side, we get God on our side.

Beetle's aren't a species, they're an order (coleoptera). There's still the family & genus between that and an actual species.
