To be fair, humans have prevented the looming extinction of horses (their numbers were dwindling a couple thousand years ago, cause they were being outcompeted by bovines who can process grass more efficiently due to their multiple stomachs).

Horses, cows, chickens, dogs, cats, rice and wheat have spread all over the globe due to humans.

So purely from an evolutionary standpoint, being a slave or food for humans is the best thing you can do as an organism.
