not gonna lie, this is more of an answer you'd have to answer yourself. It seems like an easy question just think about it.

They are not invertebrates so #1 is out
They are not endangered so #3 is also out
Also the argument that they are similar to humans is weak so I would recomend selecting # 4 because this seems like a reasonable ethical decision
this is just an educated guess though, good luck!
