I bet half the turkeys cooked go to waste one way or another (ruined while cooking, spoiled leftovers, etc). And people totally overeat.

Dolphins and whales might be intelligent, but their bodies do not allow them effective use of complex tools. Same for birds.

Octopods do have a body that is flexible enough, but having evolved in water is a huge limiting factor. But some are able to move around outside water, so it's not too far fetched to imagine becoming a global species.

Most companies put money aside for community initiatives. This is important for companies because it improves moral, thus reducing employee churn, which is costly. Spending a thousand bucks a year in sponsorships is a drop in the bucket for any mid sized company. If you never ask, you'll never know.
