Take this a little further, and I would think evolutionists would study instinct a little more to discover how animals know how to do certain things.
Is this a serious statement? Do you know who Konrad Lorenz is? How 'bout Jane Goodall? Ever read any evolutionary psychology? Animal behavior is one of the most heavily-studied fields in biology, with fieldworkers studying everything from elephants to single-celled animals. There are entire subfields of it, thousands of journals, institutional centers, field centers... See here for an extensive list of links... <a href="http://evolution.humb.univie.ac.at/jump.html" target="_blank">http://evolution.humb.univie.ac.at/jump.html</a> and those are just humans.... domestic animals are here... <a href="http://www.usask.ca/wcvm/herdmed/applied-ethology/" target="_blank">http://www.usask.ca/wcvm/herdmed/applied-ethology/</a> I won't bother with the others....there are just too damn many.
