The self-domestication hypothesis: evolution of bonobo psychology is due to selection against aggression (2012, background): “Males that attempt to intimidate females are easily retaliated against by a coalition of females (Kano 1992; Parish 1996; Vervaecke et al. 1999, 2000a; Fruth & Hohmann 2002; Hohmann & Fruth 2003a, b).”
Mechanisms of reciprocity in primates: testing for short-term contingency of grooming and food sharing in bonobos and chimpanzees (2013, background): “…little is still known about 446 sharing in wild bonobos but it seems like sharing interactions tend to include few individuals and 447 rates of transfers are relatively low (Fruth & Hohmann, 2002; Hohmann & Fruth, 1993; White, 448 1994) unless they include provisioned food (Kuroda, 1984).”
