Bull!
We most certainly got our morality from evolution. If this cat has no "morality" then why did it do this?
And why did these two elephants do this?
Humans ARE NOT the only species that display compassion and empathy and nurturing. Morality also is not stagnate either. A bull elephant however will stomp your ass in the wild if it wants your crop or your kid gets in it's way. Certain species of bird share parenting duties and the male can sit on the egg and keep it warm while the mother goes out and hunts for food for the baby chicks.
It is absolutely true that evolution does not care if compassion or cruelty work to get to the point of reproduction. But it is bullsh*t to say only humans are capable of compassion. We too as a species are also capable of great cruelty.
