Language

Why have humans been able to develop language?  Even "primitive" cultures still have language.  Yet somehow no other creature has been able to get past basic signals.  Even monkeys, gorillas, dolphins, dogs, cats, and birds don't have a language.  Sure they can "get by" just fine, but they could express a lot more with an equivelant to words and sentences. 

Humans that are isolated from other humans actually lose brain function and language ability, while a stimulated brain grows the language areas of the brain as the human learns early.  An "animal language" taught at baby age should be able to work, as long as the animal can repeat different noises.  It doesn't have to sound human.  Bears would have different noises that mean something, like Wookies.

If humans, INCLUDING black people, can develop language, then why can't bears develop their own language?  Humans wouldn't be able to speak it since we don't have the same anatomy, but bears should be able to teach meaningful noises to themselves, or have a machine attempt it like with dolphins/whales.  Animal noises are very basic signals, but they aren't standard noises used to construct meaningful sentences.  Yet you can teach animals to make certain noises when they're babies, such as birds, dogs, etc.  Why can't they give that knowledge to their children like we do?  If you teach a human baby basic words it will learn them and attribute meaning when you point at things.  Neglect a human baby and it will nver grow language skills.  Animal parents teach their young basic survival skills and noises, so language should develop at some point.  But it hasn't.
