Wait, aren't dolphins an intelligent species? Would they have to make use of metals and fossil fuels to advance their intelligence?

- yayr 6y agoas soon as they would get into using and advancing tools it would be inevitable at some point
- scotty79 6y agoYes. They may already have more raw brainpower than us but they live in environment where they don't have enough tool materials for sufficiently useful tools to evolve precise manipulation skills. They also can't use fire to command more than just energy their bodies produce. Hence no dolphin technical civilisation. Land apes have beaten them to it.
