“Put together, population biology, ethology, and evolutionary theoryform the content of the new discipline of sociobiology, which I was to define in 1975 as the systematic study of the biological basis of social behavior and of the organization of complex societies.” E.O. Wilson Page 300, Naturalist
Dolphines are highly “social” animals. They are “mammals” like elephants, bats and humans

Lesson of Great Minds & Cultures: A “Nature vs Nurture” Challenge To W.O. Wilson’s Human Nature
“Wilson speculates that repeated ice age on earth’s past stimulated man’s bioculture co-evolution. Did the receding ice age in African savannah necessitate our one-specie genetic survival & the biogrammer of bipedal tribal hunter-gatherer ?” Sophia Carson, Post-Doc University by the Blue Ridge Mt.
