Cooperation and moral behaviour in animals

Every now and then some thread pops up claiming religion is needed for a set of morality. This video, not even beginning to scratch the surface of the matter, talks about animals, their cooperation and their sense of ethics. There are many more around. This is Frans de Waal giving a short presentation on the topic.
