Carribeans are “more fun to be with than any other mammal,” according to an international team of researchers.
In a new study, published in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, the researchers found that the Carribeanas are the most likely mammal to have fun and be social.
The researchers, led by Dr. Anke Wierzwierz of the University of California, Berkeley, say the species is highly social and that their “in-group behavior” (their willingness to share food) is the most obvious sign of sociality.
“The study shows that the social complexity of the Carribian is due to the high levels of cooperative interactions between the group members, rather than to their own individual characteristics,” said Wierzerz.
Wierzzwiec’s research team collected DNA samples from the skulls of four Carribeana individuals and then analyzed them using a technique known as quantitative PCR (PCR).
The DNA was taken from two pairs of skull bones.
The first skull was collected in the late 19th century.
The second skull was recovered in 2009, from the remains of a Carribeano, who died in the early 20th century and was known to have lived in the Caribbean region of South America.
“We did not find any evidence of trauma to the skull or other injuries to the bones, which may have been due to a fall or a fight with another member of the group,” Wierzbys research team wrote in the study.
“There is no evidence that this group of animals was ever involved in a physical conflict with humans, which we think is unusual,” the team wrote.
They concluded that the skulls and teeth of the four Carribans, which were found in the same grave, had been “frozen for up to 30 years in the ground.”
“There was not a single trace of any trauma to these bones,” the researchers concluded.
The study is the first to look at the social structure of the species and their social structure in the Caribbean.
The scientists say that in their analysis, they found that most of the skulls had an almost vertical orientation, indicating that there were at least three levels of social hierarchy in the species.
“In addition to being highly social, these animals are also highly territorial, which means they are very active in territorial disputes,” said Dr. Peter Rupprecht of the Smithsonian Institution.
Rupprech’s research group also found that three of the animals belonged to different social groups.
One of the groups was called the “group of eight,” which consisted of four females and two males.
Another group was called “group three,” which included a female and a male.
“Group three was also associated with two very aggressive males that were capable of biting,” said Rupp.
“These animals lived together and were very close to one another.
The females were extremely territorial, and they were very aggressive towards other females,” Rupp said.”
This makes sense from a physical point of view because it was very easy for them to fight over the food that was in the food bowls.”
The researchers also found three skulls with a different skull type, indicating the species was different.
“If we can understand the social organization of this species, then we can look at how these animals were able to manage this level of complexity in the society of the time,” said Jeroen van der Merwe, an associate professor of biological anthropology at the University College London.
“So in the case of this animal, if we can explain the socialization of this group, it opens up the possibility of studying other species that have been classified as being ‘social’ but are actually not,” said van der Molen.
The research team says that the lack of a clear link between social structure and physical injury indicates that sociality is a complex trait, not a trait that is fixed.
“When we talk about animals that are social, we should not just focus on the physical aspect of the social life of the animal,” said Van der Merwoe.
“That would be to ignore the social aspects of the life of animals.
It would be also to overlook the social aspect of a species that is not socially capable.”
