Epicurus

Those animals which are incapable of making covenants with one another, to the end that they may neither inflict nor suffer harm, are without either justice or injustice. And those tribes which either could not or would not form mutual covenants to the same end are in like case. 

Epicurus, Principal Doctrines (Robert Drew Hicks, trans.), no. 32.
