I wonder if this discourse sounds hilarious to a Greek person wondering why Angloids keep referring to themselves by letters of their alphabet.
Carrots improve eyesight...nah, just military misinformation that is now a staple for parents to get their kids to eat their carrots
Vitamin A is crucial to eyesight and night vision though
Entirely offtopic but you're not by chance the same ryannathans that's involved in the 2009scape project are you?
There are species that do have leader types in the social hierarchies though. Gorillas for example, or orcas.
The problem is that you can't use info about wolf hierarchies to draw conclusions about human hierarchies. You can't even use info about extant primates to draw conclusions about humans.
But, but... Apes together strong?
Everyone has a share!
Thanks Milo!
Someone needs to tell all the authors involved in the wave of trash urban fantasy books that flooded the market a while back, using this to write werewolves. (True Blood, etc.)
I've heard this debunk a lot over the years, and I don't disbelieve it, but is it not the case that one or two animals (wolves or otherwise) in a group will be the "bosses" or something close to being dominant over the others? Is all of that internal power struggling we see in groups/families of animals not really what it seems? Or is the "alpha" stuff different from that? Or does it only apply to wolves, and "alphas" do exist in other animal species?
Yours, confused and uneducated,

You can sorta see the alpha thingamajig in hyenas. The chick with the biggest clit gets a possy of white knights trying to please her.
But it's not obligatory. Dudes just chilling together and biting asses can still happen without a chick to lead them on.
