I think they started turning on the idea of IQ when non-humans not only started registering (according to their hero Descartes, non-humans were expected to score exactly zero and be unable to learn squat-fuck-all), but started beating out humans (particularly retards, who are sacred.)
I remember hearing something along those lines when I was very young, and then they got angry when I asked why animals seemed to be so much smarter than some people.
Honestly, its easy to be smarter than lower percentile people as an animal just because your intelligence isn't being blocked by higher order thinking and emotions to the extent that humans are.
A full force no-function autism guy has an IQ on par and above probably a lot of animals, but because of his "more developed" brain he loses many basic instincts and ability to properly react to stimuli due to a failure in the computer that animals just don't have.
