Actually, tool usage in primates is a form of culture (protoculture). Those groups that have mastered it can be better of than those that didn't -- giving them an evolutionary advantage. The "tools" can be suprisingly complex, see for example:

What about birds?

That is pretty interesting -- I didn't knew that. I would classify this behaviour also as protocultural.

What about swarm intelligence of ants and bees?

Protoculture as well?

They can still individually learn tool usage by imitation, random exploration and reinforcement. But without culture they can't build on it.

Human supremacist world-view. Sadly incredibly common, once you drill down.

It's culture-supremacist actually. Information needs to copy itself into the future, that's the essence of both life (genes) and culture (memes).

Culture supremacy is still just bio-supremacy. Memes don’t exist except through genes.

Arguing that memes exist outside of genes is like arguing that the Platonic solids are real.
