Our biological features aren't the same as rationally deduced considerations. All of our biological tendency's, and inclination both good and bad exists as the result of the survival and reproductive benefits they offered. Secondly morality isn' just about matters of behaviors, but beliefs.And one of those beliefs, thats near universal is a perception of an objective moral reality out there. If such a reality exists it can't be reduced to our biology, anymore so than any other objective object can be.
