The reading and the lecture discuss the topic regarding altruism, and examples which provide human beings and animals in their real lives. The author believes that altruistic behavior is an integral part of people and group of animals dwelling and prepare several valuable examples. However, the speaker suggests that we make a mistake when think that this behavior is with zero benefits and show us examples with another side.
First of all, the author claims that person and group of individuals are ready to share food and donate their body organs to another people for free. Moreover, the author appears that this behavior is unselfish act that belong to every member of society. The lecture rebuts this argument suggesting that donors do not receive any appreciation after organs donations because they do not recognize this fact.
Secondly, the article notes that many species of animals have altruistic behavior and provide us with example when one representative of meerkat can be a custodian for other meerkats when they hunt or have food. Nevertheless, this point is challenged by the lecturer, and she says that this mammal from the previous example has already eaten before, he has full stomach, and we cannot use this example.
The third aspect of the debate is the meerkat behavior. Does he guard other meerkats from predators or do something else? The article, on the one hand, establishes that the meerkat is a sentinel and caretaker when other animals try to eat food. The professor, on the other hand, posits that this meerkat has an excellent opportunity to save his life because he is on the edge and could see dangerous situation the first and go away and find a shelter.
