A quibble.  I would suggest that 'some members of some species' might be more accurate if you intend to imply that humans have a place in your statement.

An even bigger quibble..Some members and only towards some other members of some species.  Humans are tribalistic in nature.

All too true.  Various groups will seek wealth, political power, a perception of cultural superiority and other forms of privilege.  Striving for equality in the face of tribal tendencies is a long up hill fight.
That this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the earth.
