To what extent does living in a group mean living with kin?

Molecular ecology - 1 Jun 2005

Lukas D, Reynolds V, Boesch C, Vigilant L

Abstract excerpt

Chimpanzees live in large groups featuring remarkable levels of gregariousness and cooperation among the males. Because males stay in their natal communities their entire lives and are hence expected to be living with male relatives, cooperation is therefore assumed to occur within one large 'family' group. However, we found that the average relatedness among males within several chimpanzee groups as determined...
