2-3 intellifgent species per galaxy...yeah right.Add a few zero's and they we'll talk.

More like 500-1000(I'm grabbing numbers out my ass)

Here's some Sufi Cosmology

When the features further descend and come out of the limits of the Angelic Realm, foundations of the tangible world of matter are being laid, which is known as Alam-e-Nasoot (parallel to the Tree of Life's sephiroth of Malkuth). It includes the material realm (most of which humans can see), and all the normally visible cosmos is included within it. Nehr-e-Tazheer (Channel of Manifestation) whose last limit is Alam-e-Nasoot, feeds Latifa-e-Nafsi. The Human Realm is categorized as supervised by:

• One Kitab-al-Mubeen, controlling:

• 300 million Loh-e-Mehfooz (Superclusters), each one controlling

• 80 thousand Hazeere (galaxies), each one containing

• 13 billion star systems, out of which

• 1 billion star systems have life on one of their planets.

• Each star has 9, 12 or 13 planets around it.

Just by reading that you could easily pull a million planets with flora and fuana,and out that million one thousand of those planets would have intelligent life.

And they funny thing about it is you did'nt consider the actual planets that are just colonized and not the original birthplace of the so called race thats inhabiting.
