Resumen

El punto central de este artículo es explicar cómo las emociones juegan un papel clave en el comportamiento moral de los mamíferos sociales. Entendido como un fenómeno natural, la moralidad se caracteriza como un sistema de demandas recíprocas donde los lobos se comprometen desde el nacimiento, donde el vínculo emocional entre los miembros de la manada juega un papel clave. El argumento se informa empíricamente para presentar una posible relación entre las emociones y los instintos sociales hacia la aptitud de los lobos a comportamientos sociales moralmente calificados basados en la existencia de un sistema social complejo dentro de la manada. El artículo relaciona las investigaciones cognitivas sobre las emociones y los sistemas psicobiológicos con estudios contemporáneos en la etología del lobo para apoyar empíricamente la tesis filosófica de que las emociones surgen en respuesta a una gama de eventos socialmente significativos. Por lo tanto, el punto es dilucidar la naturaleza de las demandas emocionales inherentes a la moral, así como su relación con las características naturales que permitieron a los lobos desarrollar
una vida social compleja. En este sentido, el artículo tiene como objetivo presentar los elementos necesarios para la aparición de un fenómeno moral inherente a los mamíferos con vida social compleja, lo que parece ser un fuerte argumento a favor de una teoría que explica la moralidad en las bases evolutivas.

Palabras clave: Moral. Emociones. Lobos. Emotivismo. Etología.
