I want to see an experiment of the fairness and compassion with animals compared to humans and see which species has the higher percentage fairness and compassionate acts
Not at all possible to get an accurate answer, since every animal is different and so is every person. seems like results will be easily skewed bases on which participants are chosen, or you'd have to get millions of them from all places.
Easy you have them all do a task for an experiment that isn't actually the experiment and pay them all the same but have a control in the group who is in on it who tells the person they are getting paid more than them to do the same task while they are "alone" and see their reactions to being "unfairly" compensated.

I think about the grape/cucumber monkeys a lot. It seems the little capucin has something we humans can learn from. She throws the cucumber at the person causing the imbalance, not the other monkey.
"Surely the fate of human beings is like that of the animals; the same fate awaits them both: As one dies, so dies the other. All have the same breath; humans have no advantage over animals. Everything is meaningless. All go to the same place; all come from dust, and to dust all return.

It often amuses me that many people are so surprised when animals domestic or free-range show reason, compassion, protectiveness, love, recall, towards other animals or people. who marvel at the animal's ability to .learn and to love' Seriously, how do they think all animals have been able to get on with their lives, bred, grown, lived, on their own for thousands of years, before humans started paying them more attention, than as a food source. It's not amazing, it's just the 'nature of all animals including people, who live on this earth.

What I want to know is did the monkeys at the end ever go on strike? Did they eventually just refuse to perform the task in protest? Does anybody know? I NEED TO KNOW! TT ^ TT
Not convinced about the interpretation of the last experiment. What does it have to do with sense of fairness?! When both are given cucumber, they see no alternative (or think that alternative is out of their reach). Later, the cucumber monkey learns that he can probably get the grape (just like that monkey in the next cage), so he repeatedly refuses the cucumber to try his luck with getting the grapes.
I was a little confused by the first experiment with the pulling involving the chimp who was already fed, did he eat the majority of the food or was it the other ape who was already fed? But this one seemed to be urging the other to help.
I want to know what would happen if one gets a grape when he give two and gets a cucumber for one rock and other gets a grape even if it gives one or two rock
How do we know they are doing this act out of goodness's sake though? Love and friendship is huge for a tribes survival, not because it's the right thing to do. Humans have died for what they consider to be morally right, not what their tribe thinks.
and how exactly do you think humans arrive at "what they consider morally right"? sounds to me like you are a wee bit uncomfortable with the results of these experiments. they make you feel less special, huh?
Survival is the base idea for every organism.We usually feel that safety in numbers is the correct option.Sometimes the heard mentality we judge the group has been mislead and that they have been mislead by an individual's idea that is not going to benefit you as an autonomous being ,so we disengage from the group path to survive.The Psychology Book by DK books has loads of ideas and experiments that clearly define animal/human nature and how we have 👍
Humans as a species just have more excuses more often, and very often with symbols like linguistic systems they call theories, sometimes very complex theories as excuses, that's why those "philosophers" just thought fairness was very complex. Very funny idea by that "philosopher" (quotation marks used here because philosophy was originally "love of wisdom" while in the case mentioned here it seems that that person anonymously mentioned by Frans de Waal prefers prejudice while denying the fact, which doesn't show any sign of love of wisdom at all) that fairness was invented during French revolution, as if arguing that gravity was invented by Newton.
"therefore dont need Messiahs or prophets either?" Worse than that: what if religions are only ancient humans trying to figure out things they didn't understand? Religious people are taking their morals from bronze age herders that thought stoning was good public policy (which explains a lot of the bad results...).
This you won't believe if they could talk and tell you what is going on but they can't because they forgot to talk have you ever hurt a dog cry when you play music too loud he is saying or cry out to you saying the music hurts my ears animals in this WORLD LOVE THEM.
You will not see any two groups of chimpanzees reconsile though.... It is a family fight family nangs together because they need eachother. To somehow globalise this to some sort of global understanding and love well LoL
Yes they need each other for the greater good of the group/family and individual by reciprocity, with the intention to secure area and food source for the group. We also do that with our family, tribe, nationality. You see here that the scope of the group getting bigger because what we face getting more complex and needed larger resources provided by more individuals. That basic thing can be applied to global understanding for the greater good, for example global warming is threatening the life of human as species because of our technologies we know that, thus its trumps other smaller group (family, tribe, ethnic, nationality) objectives.
Nah. The monkeys are just as likely to take advantage of an unfair system as these instincts come down to survival and putting yourself in a better position for success. It’s only social constructs that have made it ok for people who don’t put the effort in to get the rewards as people who work hard. I wonder if the monkeys see giving a rock as work/effort? I wonder if you had 2 monkeys, one that had to do “work” to get the grape and one that just sat there got a grape also. How long before the working monkeys caught on and said “wait a minute “! 🤣🤣🤣

Same task performed. Different reward. Monkey seemed to have an awareness of this. Unequal reward = unfair. Monkey has awareness of fairness.
