Be smart. Be monke.

I was recently thinking about how I read a study about how animals won't harm other animals in exchange for resources; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inequity_aversion_in_animals I came across this section. The monkeys tended to refuse to participate in a food-for-token exchange task once they saw another monkey get rewarded more desirable food for equal effort. It turns out even animals know that unequal pay is unfair. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/13679918/
