Infanticide in primates (Zoology πŸ¦₯)

Infanticide in non-human primates occurs when an individual kills its own or another individual's dependent young. Five hypotheses have been proposed to explain infanticide in non-human primates: exploitation, resource competition, parental manipulation, sexual selection, and social pathology.

Isn't it ironic? Despite our tech-savvy world, we humans still exhibit behaviors rooted in our primate ancestors: teenage male aggression, social status seeking, and hoarding wealth. Our advanced societies can't escape these primal instincts. Evolution's influence is strong and ever-present. πŸŒΏπŸ§ πŸ’ #HumanNature #PrimateBehavior #Evolution

Obsessed with grooming, touching and kissing this cat because I'm a primate after all. I wished we expressed affection in the same way. I want to squeeze this cat so hard, but I need to catify myself a bit to show my love so it doesn't get scared.
