So helping others became a behavior that is selected for because it helps other organisms reproduce and also now this animal can ask for a favor from the animal it helped.]]> 2017-05-24 04:37:01 UTC https://padlet.com/michael_173138/muujibzkgui6/wish/173542992 michael_173138 https://padlet.com/michael_173138/muujibzkgui6/wish/173543109 I think that there are many benefits from animals being altruistic. Helping other's is always a good thing. Animals that are altruistic may not produce as many offspring but they help others to survive and produce offspring. If an animal performs an altruistic behavior then they can ask for a favor later because the other animal owes him one.]]> 2017-05-24 04:37:48 UTC https://padlet.com/michael_173138/muujibzkgui6/wish/173543109 michael_173138 https://padlet.com/michael_173138/muujibzkgui6/wish/173543288 An altruistic animal likely lives in a group. It helps other members of the group. It receives help for certain things from others and this organism helps keep the population strong by helping others which in turn allows the others to reproduce as well.
