Anticipation of conflict by chimpanzees (1996)

Koyama, N. F., Dunbar, R. I. M.

Abstract

Captive chimpanzees appear to anticipate the occurrence of conflict during feeding by grooming and being in proximity at increased rates during the hours prior to feeding. The effect is more marked when food is clumped than when it is dispersed.
