Someone mentioned correlation between brain size and intelligence. While it's true that whales would be the smartest creatures alive were it a direct link, I read that if you plot out an average body size against average brain size among animals alive today the correlation is extremely strong, with humans coming out on top as having the biggest brain size for their body and dolphins coming second.

This fact makes dino-tribes look unlikely, at least to me.
