https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-aggression_principle

The NAP is an ethical stance that aggression is inherently wrong. "Aggression" is defined as initiating or threatening any forcible interference with an individual or individual's property.

So, libertarians and anarcho-capitalists will say that the NAP applies to humans.

Does it apply to animals?

If not, name the trait.

If so, go vegan.

it's making you realize "species" isn't a good reason to deny the NAP to some creature.

By redefining species. Which makes the original point moot.

And I assume if Yoda were real you'd say he's closer to human than animal.

No dodge. I think you're not understanding me well.
