Human rights are rights granted to all humans. For instance the

right
to not be killed.



Sure. Or as I call them, "rights".


Just calling them "rights" could imply that they also apply to
non-human such as animals.


I don't believe it makes sense to consider non-sentient entities as
having rights. You need to understand the concept of rights to have
rights.
