Most experts in behaviour believe that morality is a uniquely human trait, without which our complex life would never have emerged. But I am convinced that many animals can distinguish right from wrong. Decades spent watching wild and captive animals have persuaded me that species living in groups often have a sense of fair play built on moral codes of conduct that help cement their social relationships. Nature isn't always ruthlessly and selfishly competitive.
Animals possess the emotions upon which a moral sense is built. Chimps and monkeys seem to feel embarrassed. Whales and ravens show signs of falling in love. Iguanas register pleasure. I am particularly interested in social play - the joyful, rough and tumble common to many mammals, especially youngsters - because it has its own social rules of engagement, allowing participants to reinterpret acts that might otherwise seem aggressive. The fact that play rarely escalates into all-out fighting is a strong indication that animals do indeed abide by the rules and that they expect others to do like-wise.
My belief is that a sense of fairness is common to many animals, because there could be no social play without it, and without social play individual animals and entire groups would be at a disadvantage. If I'm right, morality evolved because it is adaptive. It helps many animals, including humans, to survive and flourish in their particular social environment. This may sound like a radical idea, particularly if you view morality a uniquely human and a sort of mystical quality that sets us apart from other animals.
Play is essential food for the brain. Research shows that the more animals play, the bigger their brain grows. Social play seems to rewire the brain, increasing connections between neurons in the cortex. It hones an individual's cognitive skills, including logical reasoning, learning and behavioural flexibility. And it helps perfect survival skills such as hunting and mating, which is essential in later life. Quantifying these benefits of play is extraordinarily difficult, but the more we learn about the way play affects the brain, the more apparent it becomes that the activity is far from idle time-wasting.
