No, you don’t really get how evolution works. It’s not a “will to power” thing like Lamarck though it was. Even if you have a big brain you’re still limited by your body and the environment. Trying to build things without hands won’t make your hands grow back

Correct, also I don't see how anything you can build and operate with your fucking mouth is going to give you an evolutionary advantage.
If you can't do nothing with your intelligence then your intelligence stops being an important evolutionary factor and starts to erode.

>>3877639
In fact, let me talk a bit about evolutionary erosion.
Evolution operates in a "need it or loose it" basis. If a given characteristic is no longer relevant for survival then it's going to slowly fade away.
Why? Because if an individual is born with less of that characteristic (or a complete lack of it) he is not at a disadvantage compared to other individuals, on the contrary he might even have an advantage as a consequence.
Many aquatic mammals for example, have basically lost a pair of limbs. Sure, they could have evolved two pairs of fins but if one pair of fins does the job an individual is not losing much if he is born with underdeveloped hind fins, on the contrary, he is freeing up all the metabolic budget he was wasting in having two pairs of limbs, and that extra metabolic budget can go into other things.
Humans for example have a mutation that makes us physically much weaker than other apes, but all that energy that we saved up on muscle paved the way for bigger brains and also physical endurance.
We are some of the weakest living beings out there but we have more endurance that basically any other animal.

Are you stupid? Did you not read the book? The mantelopes were literally as intelligent as the star people, and they lived alongside the qu until they up and left. I understand if they were dropped on a planet like most of the others, but these guys were literally more intelligent than we were and saw sapient life working with tools for generations. You'd have to be an idiot to think that literally already sapient life wouldn't be able to make due with what they had. It is literally like somebody chopping off your hands and cutting out your tongue, along with a couple hundred other people, and dropping you off on an island. Would it suck? Yes. Would it be hard? Yes. But you wouldn't sit there and do nothing for millions of years, becoming feral,faggot.

Quoted By:

>>3877657
Our bigger brains and high endurance actually made us better at hunting. By studying hunter-gatherer tribes we have an idea of how we hunted before tools, basically we tired animals to death.
Sure, that gazelle is much faster than any of us but when it runs away we can simply track it using our big pattern seeking brains, and again the gazelle runs, but we keep tracking it, and we make it run again, and again until five hours later the poor gazelle is so exhausted it can barely stay on it's feet and we are still on pursuit. Some hunter gatherer tribes still do it, they have bows that are not very strong so they just hurt the prey and keep running behind it and tracking it until it's completely gassed out.
No other predator can pull that kind of strategy because they are good at short bursts of speed over short distances and if the prey runs away they can't track it.
Humans are so bafflingly good at running that for a long time if you wanted to send a message over a very long distance it was faster to send a messenger on foot than a horse. The horse was much faster over a short distance but at most they can galop like 2 miles, and you can maybe squeeze 20 miles out of them on the span of a day at a slow pace.
A trained human on the other hand can run over baffling distances non-stop. To give you some modern day examples Yiannis Kouros ran non-stop over a 24 hour period and covered 188 miles. Chloё McCardel swam for 41 hours straight and covered the 77 miles between South Eleuthera Island and Nassau.

Of all the animals to be concerned about conservation wise, blue whales should be at the bottom of the list.
