Chapter 563 (2/2)
The reason why nature is attractive is because of its various forms. Some animals, their ability is not enough to make themselves and other animals have one-on-one fighting ability, have to rely on the strength of the group, the wolf is such an animal.
I'm afraid it's too late for a single wolf to escape when he sees a wild boar. There's no doubt about it. But the wolves seem not afraid of anything. This is the advantage of group predation.
In addition, the colony also has other functions, such as the polar penguins, which are often gathered by thousands. Because they live in a world of ice and snow, although they have a thick body fat, but the cluster can undoubtedly warm each other, this kind of cluster is good for keeping out the cold.
Monkeys also live in groups. Although the flexibility and intelligence of monkeys are obvious to all, their weakness is also obvious. Many large carnivores, such as tigers and leopards, often take monkeys as their food, which makes monkeys have to unite to prevent accidents.
On the high branch, a monkey set up a shed with his hand. It was originally on guard. This is a good cluster for safety.
In any form of cluster, their purpose is mutual benefit. In this sense, the weak are more likely to cluster. However, the scale of the cluster depends on the living space, the abundance of food and the number and strength of predators.
If there are too many individuals in the group, limited food can not be allocated, limited space can not be shared, this kind of cluster is unnecessary.
On the other hand, if the number of individuals in the group is too small to form an advantage over the predator, the purpose of clustering will not be achieved, which is also meaningless. Therefore, the size of the group should also be based on the needs, so as to have a certain role in survival.
Tens of thousands of species are formed by different species, depending on their needs, and termites can form more than 1 million large groups. Sardine is also often found in thousands of different parts. However, most of the animal species are only a few, dozens or hundreds of them.
Sometimes, when the number of group animals reaches a certain scale, there will be clustering.
As we all know, when the density of locusts in the group reaches the limit, some individuals' wings will become longer and their flying ability will be improved. In order to survive better, these locusts will take the initiative to go out and look for new living space.
It should be noted that for the sake of common interests, some different kinds of weak individuals will temporarily gather together and use their hearing, vision and smell to guard against common enemies.
Although many animals have group division of labor, organization and information communication, the division of labor, organization and information communication of animal group life are instinctive and lack of conceptual construction.
The essential difference between human group life and animal group life is human. The division of labor, organization and information communication in human group life are not only instinctive, but also conceptual.
It is precisely the self construction of the concept that gives the reason of human self-consciousness, promotes human from instinct, and forms human cultural characteristics.
The division of labor, organization and information communication of animal group life can not get out of the fetters of instinct because of the lack of conceptual structure. It is this that distinguishes humans from animals.
Conceptual style needs the activation of human social life, and self-consciousness needs the framework of conceptual style. The combination of the two makes human beings have their own characteristics higher than animals. The core of the so-called human culture is the self-consciousness of the way of concept, as well as the continuous deepening and high development of this self-consciousness.
Fang Tianxing can't be integrated into the horses, because he doesn't treat himself as a horse. Many people can't integrate into the society, because they can't put their position in the right place and can't accept their identity.
Fang Tianxing simply goes alone. When he sees wolves attacking horses, he will jump out to protect them. This may not be beneficial or correct to some extent.
