Frans De Waal Quotes

From An Evolutionary Perspective, Nothing Could Be Worse For A Male Than To Eliminate His Own Progeny. It's Assumed, Therefore, That Nature Has Provided Males With A Rule Of Thumb To Attack Only Infants Of Mothers With Whom They Have Had No Recent Sex. This May Seem Foolproof For The Males, But It Opens The Door For A Brilliant Female Counterstrategy. By Accepting The Advances Of Many Males, A Female Can Buffer Herself Against Infanticide Because None Of Her Mates Can Discard The Possibility That Her Infant Is His. In Other Words, It Pays To Sleep Around.
