The whole point was the unique and exceptional nature of specifically human throwing, of course the judgment will be levied against other species.
If you were talking about animals great at spitting with accuracy, the archerfish takes the prize.
If we were talking about the fastest animal on earth, we probably look at a falcon in a dive.
If we're looking at the species with the best accurate throwing ability? Humans win.
Again, that's the whole point of the post. That humans are uniquely good at the skill.
You know which animal is great at having brains distributed throughout its tentacles? Octopi. They're better at having brains in their tentacles than other species.
