Bugs probably feel pain given they modify their behaviour after injuries and seek to avoid them.

Plants probably also feel pain then, considering that they modify their behavior after injury, seek to avoid them, and chemically communicate with other plants to protect themselves. Life is life, no matter if it's speaking, clucking, mooing, or photosynthesizing, it's just a matter of where you draw the line.
