hmmm, but if you have two bushmen, one with a high IQ and one with a low IQ who will better survive. Or what if the most intelligent person in the Savanna was a bushman...So it depends on what you consider intelligence. Critical thinking is part of IQ testing and I would expect a wiley bushman to be good at critical thinking if he is going to survive.
