[null and void]

I have a longish list of people I’d like to send to the Seregeti plains.

It simply never occurred to me to pre-test their ability to navigate and prosper on the Serengeti plains...

[null and void]

IMHO, this would be a far more useful test than an IQ test:

Sociopath Tests of the Brain

The cluster of traits and behaviors displayed by a sociopath, the symptoms of a sociopath, happen to be associated with certain patterns of activity in the brain. Brain scans can test for sociopathy.

• Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) scans show that sociopaths don't have the same patterns in response to emotional stimuli (either verbal or visual) that non-sociopaths do (Babiak & Hare, 2006).
• Scans indicate that the brain of a sociopath shows the same response pattern for every stimulus while reaction patterns in a non-sociopath differ according to degree of emotion (Babiak & Hare, 2006).
• Electroencephalogram (EEG) waves record details about how the brain processes information, and here, too, the brain of a sociopath behaves differently (Kiehl, 2014).

How well would your favorite (or least favorite) politician score on such a test?

Should passing a test be a requirement for holding office?

An intelligent Westerner, put through Army survival school training, would have a better chance of surviving the Serengeti plains, than a resident of the Serengeti would have in being a successful member of the US middle class, unless he was brought over to play athlete.
