As I was saying earlier, when asking why and how these people were brain-damaged, how they'd survived the Darkness, and whether the "animal instinct" bit had perhaps been a survival trait.
Hmm, maybe we look at Prax as a parallel? The "losers" who got turned into animals were able to survive on less adequate food. Now, where does the inverse link between intelligence and digestion come from?
