In my opinion, morals are a product of the evolutionary process. We are born with certain traits. If a member of our tribe was drowning - we would automatically try to save them. You even see this among other animals - this need to assist.
Even if the individual is not of your tribe, or even of your species - strong moral evolutionary character trait obligations - still come into play at times. A drowning deer if you're hungry is not a moral decision - if it's your hunting dog though?
Society tries to break this evolutionary character trait down - to deny it - for the leaderships gain. You will most often find this moral aptitude among the higher sentient mammals (ones that show signs of emotion and personality) - than you would those that do not. One that once raised a pig as a pet - would prefer to eat chicken.................
Of course a wild boar - is not a domesticated pig - so think wild - to find your morals - for social manipulation is just that.

You are a sane individual born of the natural world and you have a voice.
