Like I said before, ping me when the missing link for INTELLIGENCE is discovered. You might also include DNA's missing link.

I don't know what you mean by "DNA's missing link," but there is lots of available evidence for the evolution of cognition. Read up, for example, on evolving tool industries across species, from the oldest (Oldowan, Clactonian) to the Acheulean to Levallois, etc.

Paranthropus bosei, 1.4 million years ago was already crafting its own tools.

This is second time I've heard about this "DNA's missing link" stuff. Is this the birth of a new talking point?
