  • Altruism, an act that bestows a benefit on the recipient while conferring a cost to the actor, is one of the central paradoxes of evolution. In the wild, where only the fittest survive, adopting other animals’ offspring is not really in line with Darwin’s theory of evolution. And yet, amongst bees, dolphins, lions and several primate species, altruism may go as far as adoption. In the case of social insects, parent substitution was a flaw in Darwin’s theory of evolution by natural selection: the biologist noticed that non-reproductive insects who adopted and helped young ones, brought a large portion of genetic baggage from their parents. Darwin had to broaden his theory to the family group. For mammals, including men, what advantage is there in the act of adoption? In the years following the adoption, does the adopted individual contribute to the foster parents’ survival and vice versa? The controversy at the heart of this documentary continues to be debated in today’s scientific world. While raising these different questions, this documentary will study each case separately because each adoption behaviour has evolved independently forming its own pattern, its own benefit and even… its own disadvantages.

    I watched a video just Yesterday about these monkeys. One of the mothers abandons her baby and as another mother comes up after 20 mins of hearing this baby crying she adopts it!! Not only did she adopt it but treated it the same way she treated her own baby which was the same age! She had to carry two around and eat for two! 😍💜❤️

    This documentary simplifies Darwin. He had lots of interesting thoughts about cooperation, altruism, and group selection. It was the Modern Synthesis which simplified everything down to selfish genes.

    Adopting other species is common also for humans, when they adopt a dog or a cat - or whatever their choice may be. So that is a waste of energy?

    Deers have been known for centuries to take on other orphan deers. Too bad, humans often have a better chance of adopting a puppy than a human baby. Many children grow up in orphanages without any love.

      Ain't that the truth. For example, look at the new right to life, abortion ban. Our society is *full* of babies that can't get adopted because of skin color. I'm okay if you believe that every life deserves a chance, but 99% of those who fight for the right to life would rather die than adopt an interracial baby, or one that was born because the mother was addicted to drugs. Those babies weren't getting adopted any faster than the ones that will be born now that the new laws are on the books. Who's going to pay for all the children of color? Looking forward to THAT answer...

    • @wilburmcbride8096

      @@koriw1701 Your answer is no one is going to pay for all the new born Babies. They are just going to be an extra burden to society. Fill up our orphanages and add more taxes for the tax payers. The best Solution to this problem is for women to close their legs and men to stop being free sperm donors, but we are too addicted to sex as a society to stop that.

    Section on macaques was well made. I’ve been watching these macaque videos for several years now and I’ve seen all of this play out before. I was especially close to the story of a baby macaque that was abandoned by his mother shortly after birth and another female actually does adopt him. She was incredibly rough with him but she let him nurse. He survived for 19 days but this adopted baby became incredibly obnoxious and demanding for his adopted mother’s milk and he didn’t like waiting while her own baby nursed. So he constantly challenged her and threw tantrums. After a couple weeks a teenage female who had been trying to kidnap him since day one found her opportunity and she took him. Of course the baby had no milk while he was with this teenage monkey but the teenage monkey was completely unconcerned. The adopted mother got him back and then he was kidnapped a few more times but finally the teenage monkey kept him too long. She dropped him from a tree, she smashed him against a cliff when’s she missed a jump and then fell like 15 meters and hit the ground. By the next day the baby had dehydrated to death. But it all happened exactly like the this doc stated.

    What is also rather interesting is when you have as I did have a dairy cow adopt me as if I were her calf , She would come to me to lick me with were very rough tongue to from me and she would not let a dog near me . She would attack the dog if he came near , also I could not let children near when I brought the cows up to be milked... There was one rather interesting experience that a builder had when we had some major alterations made to the cowshed where the cows are milked day and night... During the day he started up the skill saw that made a foreign noise to this cow and she being about 200 or 300 metres from the shed she heard the noise and she came running down to the shed all upset because she thought I was being threatened... The builder was rather surprised to see this cow coming down to the she so agitated ... I had other cows in the past also looked for me to walk me to the cow shed to be milked.

      That's because "dairy cows" have their babies taken from them. If you hadn't separated the baby from his mother, she would mother her baby. Since her baby was taken, she decided you were her calf, to deal with the fact her baby was lost and probably sent to slaughter.

  • @mariedelozier2530

    The answer is simple; nature is not merely mechanical or "evolutionarily economic). It is, as everything in CREATION, based on the Quantum,whose basic principle that everything affects everything else that exsists,whether minutely or on a massive scale. Understood this way, the idea of fostering unrelated beings makes perfect sense. That is the Darwinian theory's blind spot.

    The human stepparent thing could be partly explained by the tendency for people with psychological problems to have more trouble with relationships. In order to have a stepparent, you need one parent who had a child and isn't partnered with that child's other parent, usually because the relationship broke down; and a person who is single and available at an age where many of their peers have children, or else willing to have a relationship with someone much older than them. All three categories of people are more likely than happily married people to have psychological issues, including issues linked to violence.

    • @13minutestomidnight
      @13minutestomidnight 7 лет назад +2

      That's a fairly big jump in logic and assumptions there. For example, you're assuming that inter-relationship problems with an adult translate to problems with children, or you're ignoring that "psychological problems" includes a vast range of psychological issues which aren't related to violence with children (or that "psychological problems" is such an enormous categorisation of behaviour that most humans will have some aspect of psychological problem, none of which shows an increased relationship to violence), and your concluding assumption is illogical and unsupported. You haven't considered that the healthy "standard average" version of the human mind (which is really an oxymoron, but let's ignore that for the moment), as you might consider the human mind from an evolutionary standpoint, might have a significant inclination towards violence with children. I don't think that's the case, but I'm trying to show the problems with the kind of grand-sweeping generalisations you were making.
      Unfortunately in this documentary we heard that piece of information about "stepparents" in a vacuum, without statistical context (who, when, where), or looking at the fact that biological parents are often the abusers of children (they are most likely to kidnap their own children as well), or that there are plenty of instances of serial pedophiles ingratiating themselves with the parent (developing a sustained adult relationship) so they can prey on the child. Your argument is a bit like looking at the fact that humanity has a fairly high rate of infanticide for a species, and therefore assume that as a species humans are bad parents (when the fact is that there's such an enormous range of behaviour for parenting in humans, with instances of war and chaotic history skewing the statistics, that such an assumption would be meaninglessly over-simplified).

    • @awright119021
      @awright119021 2 года назад

      So you're just assuming that anyone who is willing to marry a person who has a child is psychologically unwell?? That's a huge and incorrect assumption. There are tons of people who choose to pursue a career before marriage so they could easily fall in love with someone later in life who already has a child. Or they could've been in a relationship with a person that had issues and left because they want a healthy relationship. You make so many wild leaps and assumptions, I'm concerned about your ability to think logically.
