Until recently, scientists thought cannibalism was a rare response to starvation or other extreme stress. Well-known cannibals like the praying mantis and black widow were considered bizarre exceptions. But now, we know they more or less represent the rule. Bill Schutt shows how cannibalism can promote the survival of a species by reducing competition, culling the weak, and bolstering the strong.

For some reason I thought this said “cannibalism in the United Kingdom” and got really intrigued and nervous at the same time about what was happening in the UK
So....what if it actually read CANNIBALISM IN THE UNITED KINGDOM

So the Red-back spider sacrifices his abdomen and his life after impregnanting the female, just so his children are well nourished and can live a full life. That's some quality Shakespeare level tragic love story right there.

So that’s why scar tried to kill Simba, to try and get in love with the queen, which he does try to get her to be his queen in the movie.
It's actually quite accurate in that sense. He kills the Alpha Male and attempts to remove the cub. If the cub is strong enough, it can just run away where it grows up on its own until it is strong enough to challenge another pride for leadership.
Oh so male lions don't want step-children!

@K- potato: The problem is that the Human Social Structures will penalize that behavior. So it would be a net-penalty to your competitiveness.
That and we are a bit beyond animals, so "Animals do it" is not really an excuse. Because even they do not do it all the time.

Is it weird that I read that in my head the voices of the partner from carl the carnivorus lama?
@@irimac1806 me too jfcbehc omg, does this have a deeper meaning?
I remember reading recently that the "fact" that cannibalism is a regular part of praying mantis mating is incorrect. Yes the female will eat the male if she is hungry enough, but more often then not the male is able to live and mate another day. This myth comes from studies on captive specimens, where they were kept in close proximity to each other and the male was unable to escape due to the confines of their container. So yes, praying mantises are cannibals but it isn't a normal part of their courting behavior like the australian red-backed spider.
Thank you! It’s always so, so important to keep in mind that what we see happen between individual animals in captivity may not always be the case for other, free-roaming individuals-If I remember correctly, one Portuguese study found that under natural, wild conditions, a mere 25-30% of male European mantids are eaten by their partners.
The beginning of FINDING NEMO WAS A LIE😿
Verminlord Soulberry88 marlin ate everyone

Not really. It could have happened with a different kind of fish.
You just ruin my childhood
Don’t forget, Male clown fish turn into female clown fish, when the mom dies.
Indeed, if you as a human believe cannibalism is strange you are in good company my friends.
But CNN said to understand cannibalism I need to know cultural relativisim.

Some people: "Humans don't have parental instincts like other animals do"
Other animals: *Eat their children*
I'm grateful that at least our society hasn't degenerated to the point of cannibalism being a common thing again. And I hope it continues like this.
Eating someone in a different sense is popular these days.

So the big foot may have eaten his siblings...
I think he ate his Foot and the other foot by default became the Only and Big Foot
No that makes Differenc ehumans from animals... we rather nurture weak ones and care of them if we able. they survive and sometimes even become stronger.. and more resistant toward things in certain ways. ofc the polution and over things reduces the protection we develope... since we have medicin we can cure heal nurture things...
@Ashubel Sam: Except this is no difference. Several Animals exhibit the same behavior. Even across species. Including ones that *also* do Cannibalism.
it just behaviour they have . only similarities toward humans.. No one else has complete everything what humans has..
No he crushed the smaller foots

What you left out is the fact unlike humans when cannibalism takes place disease is not contracted! For us to eat each other all sorts of problems are passed on including neurodegenerative disorders! This happens because socially it has never been the norm within our species so we have evolved differently!
Not so, in many places around the world it was the norm up until fairly recently. Including eating your elders.
It was the norm during the paleolitic
Many animals can also experience disease from cannibalism if they aren’t carful, just avoid the prion rich brain

I remember in science class, we had some rainbow trout. Over the weekend, one trout ate another because nobody was there to feed them. On Monday, we noticed a trout looking bigger and a fish tail sticking out of it's mouth.
When two humans are put in cage without food for days, there are higher possibilities they can turn cannibal. Part of survival instincts.
Cannibalism is actually very very natural. Lmao. But like…morally, it’s pretty wrong so ya.
