Assuming this, we would act on instinct before we use our brains to rationalize and think of longterm solutions. Survival doesn't need to be applied to future generations. As long as we can ensure offspring, that is enough from the most basic instinct point of view.

Back to the topic at hand, assuming a moral stance, it is quite disgusting and wrong what is done to the dolphins.

PS Can we find out what we did to deserve the blue dot? (under the skill bar on the side)
Basically what I was saying is that humans things do things intentionally that are counter for our survival, whether we realize it or not. Where as animals typically have a reason for doing every action. I am sure there are some exceptions or instances that we don't have explains why animals seem to do certain things. But largely speaking humans are doing things that are detrimental for our survival. Now I am no expert, so I could be totally out to lunch on this...

As for your "skill" rating, click on the "User CP" on the red bar at the top of the page, and it will tell where and why you got it.
