- Killer whales can live more than 20 years after they're no longer able to reproduce, and also just so happen to live in matrilineal pods, with daughters and granddaughters staying in the same pod they were born in.
虎鯨在無法繁殖後還能存活 20 多年,而且它們也恰好生活在母系群體中,女兒和孫女都住在它們出生的同一個群體中。
- But for killer whales and humans alike, grandmothering is described as the key to survival, and sets us apart from other species who don't have these matrilineal practices, and are fertile their whole lives.
但對於虎鯨和人類來說,祖母的角色被描述為是生存的關鍵,使我們有別於其他物種,因為其他物種他們沒有這些母系習俗,且一生都能生育。
