While it may seem counterproductive for members of the same species to eat each other, cannibalism can promote the survival of the species as a whole by reducing competition, culling the weak, and bolstering the strong.
雖然對於同種族的成員來說，同類相食看似毫無用意。但那其實可以促進整個種族的存活，畢竟競爭減少了，弱者也被篩選了出來，強者則得到助益。

雖然對於同個物種的成員來說，同類相食似乎不利於繁殖，但其實藉由這種方式降低競爭、剔除弱者，並鞏固強者，反而能促進整個物種的存活。

Thanks Kelsi.
我覺得人類在其他動物眼中才是最奇怪的。人類可以可以用各種形式的自相殘殺，來讓自己長得更快更壯。

動物競爭是挑最強的winner takes all,我們這邊是挑弱ㄉ，餵ㄍ香蕉，把強ㄉ弄走，強ㄉ有三條路1 離開香蕉園 2 裝弱裝白痴 3 自己餵別人香蕉。有份工作就是ㄧ份安定感，為了安定感，常常忘了自己不是猴子，ㄅㄆㄇ猴園ㄉ老闆常說，你不ㄔ香蕉，后面還有很多排隊要領ㄉ。

適者生存的世界。
很殘酷卻也是必須存在的條件。
多希望職場確實實施汰弱留優政策，把一些每天上班摸魚偷懶的全部汰除。

馬上想到 Agar.io 這款遊戲, 玩家是大小不同的點點, 為了生存下來必須吃掉其他玩家的點點使自己變得更大, 而這遊戲並沒有結束的一天, 玩家就是一直持續大魚吃小魚
還有一款是 Snake off 也是類似的遊戲, 只是玩家是長短粗細不同的蛇
