Animals don't have morality. Morality is a system of right and wrong behavior. Sure WE can apply morals to their actions, but the animals are not stopping and thinking "Gee is this the RIGHT thing to do?"
And I think morality obviously came first. Religion started out as a way to pacify our fears of the unknown, and (again at first) had nothing to do with morality. Of course, this partially depends on how you would define/think of religion.
