Vocal imitation does not imply an ability to imitate nonvocal motorpatterns. Exponential growth in frequency of a behaviour in apopulation does not imply diffusion by social learning.Distinguishing analogues from homologues of human culture will avoidconfusion in discussion of evolution of culture. Original sources donot demonstrate social learning, imitation, or teaching ofintentional beaching or lobtail feeding in cetaceans.
