Molina: Beyond Human Friendships: The Power of Social Bonds in the Animal Kingdom, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Social bonds aren't just for humans. From chimpanzees grooming each other to elephant matriarchies protecting young, the animal kingdom brims with examples of powerful connections. These bonds go beyond mere friendship, offering a range of benefits: cooperative hunting in wolves strengthens the pack, while vampire bats share blood with weaker members, promoting group survival. These connections are often forged through shared experiences, building trust and fostering altruistic behavior. Whether through grooming, play, or communication, these social bonds form the bedrock of animal societies, highlighting the deep evolutionary drive for connection that extends far beyond our own species.
