Turkish evolution in action...

These are sad pictures. Do you ever consider the unfortunate mother who carried the off-spring for nine months.

Note that the occurence was in Hakkari.

I suppose that your sick mind finds it funny. Not.

"Such easygoing promiscuity has earned bonobos a unique place in the popular
imagination β€” "equal parts dolphin, Dalai Lama, and Warren Beatty," in the words
of New Yorker writer Ian Parker. But the reputation is based on limited
evidence: most observations come from a couple hundred captive bonobos, and only
a few primatologists track our endangered cousin in its remote Congolese home.
One such primatologist is Gottfried Hohmann of the Max Planck Institute for
Evolutionary Anthropology, a central figure in Parker's article and author of a
study, published yesterday in Current Biology, that describes bands of bonobos
tracking, killing and eating young monkeys. "

Not so peaceful after all!

Could those be the aberrant "TCs"

I am wary of any attempt to draw parallels between animals and humans, especially when these are along the lines of "monkeys and people have 98 per cent common genes" etc. We probably share a pretty impressive percentage of genes with rats too, but so far no animaleer has stood up to claim kinship.

apart from lawyers

DT, good point! Glad I left that profession to the sharks!

...habits in society, as with rats and cockroaches, can teach us alot about our own.

Most instances of aggression in the animal world are over territory ....

Fucking hell man! Is that what you've been discussing for the past 5 months! What are you? Some kind of an APE specialist? I bet you even speak the lingo... Never mind "it's all Greek to me!"

This thread is obviously helping the Cyprus problem a lot. I propose - no! I insist that there should be a seminar about the APES during the next meeting of our leaders...

...and whilst they are at it, they should set up a scientific team to explore what our relationship to cockroaches and rats are

[Oracle]

Well I am pleased to see you are willing to remain open minded to solutions from the unlikeliest of sources ...

... because of course we have countless threads that have unequivocally helped the CyProb enormously.
