In the animal world, as in our own, the family unit and social structure are crucial to survival. Animal alliances are as important for caring and sharing as for hunting and killing. Like animals, humans depend on social groups—from the small-scale family unit to a large organization such as the United Nations. By comparing human relationships with perceived animal parallels, this program offers an interesting insight into our shared world. (53 minutes)
