Hmm .. interestingly, we might be able to make definitive statements about the proportions of 'intelligent species' at certain definitive points in the evolutionary scale.
But why be concerned with 'intelligence' ?
This kind of equates to the T-Rex having big teeth, as his main weapon.
So, intelligence should lead to greater longevity than big gruesome, scary teeth ! And that's in spite its relatively miniscule proportions !
Things aren't looking too good here, Jenny !
There again, aliens might consider our intelligence to be nothing more than a bee sting (perhaps not even that).
Cheers
