I'm quoting from world-renowned primatologists, and I didn't say that they never fight, I simply articulated the circumstances under which that happens - which is entirely opposite from "warring chimpanzees" as a common occurrence.
Did male primatologists ever believe in a pacificist ape. If so, that's news to me... And you're kidding right, about the number of cases not mattering! 1 chimp death every 7.5 years is very clearly not evidence of rampant chimp warfare. 🙄
Edit:
“Chimpanzees are not killing machines; 99 percent of their lives are spent in peace. Of course the same could be said about us. The potential for violent behavior is within each of us, but it surfaces only rarely, or never at all. And just as humans have myriad ways to defuse disputes before they reach a stage at which violence seems a feasible option, chimpanzees have many fail-safes that prevent lethal aggression from taking place. After minor squabbles they reconcile, and the ways in which they restore social harmony are as interesting and important as the violence that gets all the attention from scientists and the media.”
