It does not seem nobler to me that, when an animal takes a bite out of the jugular of another animal, it is done without emotion, but when a human takes a bite out of another human's jugular, it is through malice if not outright hatred.

Small note: An animal does have an emotion, however because it cannot self-reference and communicate an emotion one has to use the term affective state. They do have an emotional context when killing.
(small point of order. hope its not to pedantic.

Your point is still valid.
