The best answer for this excerpt would be:

The line indicates that Zaroff regards all animals as superior to humans.

Zaroff has a very different opinion of sailors when he describes them that animals are better than their existence. This line of thinking of Zaroff comes from his privileged life in a rich society that believes that some beings maybe superior from ordinary humans.
