Recording the feats of the emperor is already miles beyond what whales probably do and I d go as far as to call that recorded History,since the goal of writing is to allow the dead to speak to the future, a megalomaniac endeavour only overly inflated brains could think about.
After seeing that poor monkey spending his life learning sign language just to ask for more bananas and never asking a tough question, Im a bit pesimistic.

Alex is notable for being the first non-human to ask an existential question, asking, "What color?" when seeing himself in the mirror. He quickly learned he was grey.
