Who are we & where did we come from?

A study that changes the "man is the only" story a bit.

Murder 'comes naturally' to chimpanzees

"A major study suggests that killing among chimpanzees results from normal competition, not human interference.

Apart from humans, chimpanzees are the only primates known to gang up on their neighbours with lethal results - but primatologists have long disagreed about the underlying reasons.

One proposal was that human activity, including destroying habitats and providing food, increased aggression.

But the new findings, published in Nature, suggest this is not the case...."

I remember way back watching a NatGeo show with Jane Goodall. I think it was the first time a tribe of apes was filmed killing an ape from another tribe. The ape was ripped to tiny pieces.
