Chapter 1 ALLOSAURUS AND THE TERRIBLE, HORRIBLE, NO GOOD, VERY BAD DAY

UCTION TO INTROD EVOLUTION

“I don’t see how we’re ever going to agree if you suggest that natural laws have changed. It’s magical [thinking].” — Bill Nye (2014), the science guy, in a debate about evolution vs. creation

rs About 66 million yea ago,

I’m pretty sure it was on a Tuesday, something truly terrible happened in modern-day Mexico. An extremely large meteorite (10 km wide) obligingly obeyed the laws of physics and smashed into the planet we have since come to adore and abuse. Striking in the Yucatan Peninsula, the massive meteorite created a blast some 30 billion times more powerful than the sum of the atomic bombs that destroyed Hiroshima and Nagasaki in World War II. In an instant, a tropical paradise became a smoldering crater 20 km deep and 160 km wide. Massive tsunamis, earthquakes, and volcanoes were triggered worldwide. Climate change, forest fires, and acid rain must have occurred on an unimaginable scale. Some scientists think it may have taken a decade just for the thick clouds of and dust to settle. For the first time in millions of years, it became a terrible time to be a dinosaur. As thick clouds of dust choked the planet, even the cleverest and most resourceful dinosaurs proved to be unprepared to survive on a burning-then-freezing planet practically 1 Copyrighted material – 9781352002942 Copyrighted material – 9781352002942 2 EVOLUTIONARY PSYCHOLOGY

devoid of plant life (Brusatte et al., 2014). Lloyds of London was not answering any phone calls. Virtually all evolutionary biologists believe this epic tragedy for dinosaurs became a wonderful opportunity for mammals like me and you. Actually, the typical mammals who were lucky enough to surviveMorganucodon in the wake of this planetary disaster resembled a chipmunk a lot more than they resembled me and you. Beginning with descendants of the chipmunkish (aka Morgie), many ancient mammals survived the cosmic disaster and then evolved to become the incredibly diverse of always warm and usually fuzzy creatures that zookeepers and preschoolers know and love. Post-asteroid, most of Morgie’s mammalian descendants had some huge advantages over most dinosaurs. For starters, having fur and being good at staying warm probably helped small mammals survive the harsh nuclear winter that helped extinguish all the big dinosaurs. It was probably an even bigger advantage for small mammals that they could live in small places, away from the fire, snow, and acid rain. Morgie, for example, was only about 10 cm long,extinction roughly as big as you see her in Figure 1.1. If you’re paleontologically sophisticated enough to know that many birdlike dinosaurs also survived this mass , you probably know one likely reason why many of them were able to do so. It’s a lot easier to survive a lengthy global famine when you eat like a bird than when your idea of dinner is half a ton of fresh grass, or filet of Triceratops.

Figure 1.1 Artist Michael H.W.’s impression of Morgie, one of the first known proto-mammals. Morgie’s fur, special jaws, and mammalian inner ear bones set her apart from dinosaurs or reptiles. You share quite a bit of her DNA (her genome).

HOMOLOGY, PALEONTOLOGY, AND PSYCHOLOGY

In the millions of years since the massive asteroid strike, the earth’s inhabitants have slowly but dramatically diversified. About 15–20 million years after the strike, some of Morgie’s mammalian descendants gradually returned to the oceans that spawned all life on earth, eventually evolving into modern whales

and dolphins. Incidentally, one of the many reasons we know that whales and dolphins evolved from land mammals is that their skeletons strongly resemble those of other mammals. For example, as you can see in Figure 1.2, dolphins have forelimb (“flipper”) bones that strongly resemble the front limb bones of virtually all mammals. Dolphins even have five “finger” bones just like we do, despitehomology the fact that dolphins look totally ridiculous in gloves. The tendency for animals that share a common ancestor to share traits with one another is known as , and it occurs because animals that have an ancestor in common have genes in common. Some whales and dolphins have vestigial (tiny, left over) rear leg bones that never emerge from their bodies. In addition to breathing air, nursing their young, and having special mammalian ear bones, dolphins and whales also share a much greater percentage of their genome with you than they do with the sharks or other large fish that they more closely resemble on the outside. Finally, another piece of evidence strongly suggesting that dolphins and whales evolved from land mammals has to do with the way they swim. Unlike fish, which propel themselves by moving their tails side to side, whales and dolphins move their spines up and down to swim. As a wolf or runs, the same thing happens to its spine. Notice that mode of swimming is a behavioral trait grounded in a whale’s skeletal structure. It’s important to note that homology applies to behavioral as well as physical traits, and many of these behavioral traits are grounded in the brain as well as the body. Numerous arguments in this book involve ways in which human beings behave like other mammals, because of their mammalian bodies and/or brains. It would be another 20 million years after some mammals returned to the oceans (about 25–30 million years ago) before the common ancestors of monkeysHomo andsapiens apes split into these two different groups. The apes, by the way, are the ones without tails, and one particular species of great ape, the hominid (you and me), emerged only about 200,000 years ago (Ermini et al., 2015). So our species has only been around for about a fifth of a million years. In fact, it was only 11,000 years ago that we made the agricultural – and then cultural – leaps that have made us the most successful and destructive animals on the planet (Diamond, 1997). I’ll say more about that later. For now, it seems safe to say that no human leaps of any kind would have ever happened if the dinosaurs still ruled. If you’re wondering what this paleontology lesson has to do with psychology, the beginning of the answer is that you and I are mammals. Mammals and proto- mammals lived alongside dinosaurs for more than 100 million years without becoming a very diverse family. Seventy million years ago there were no bats, whales, giraffes, or gorillas. They did not exist because tens of millions of years before mammals hit the scene (or exploded in the Pliocene), dinosaurs had cornered the market on the ecological niches needed to support such highly unusual modern-day mammals. Morgie and most of her ancient mammalian cousins filled a unique environmental niche by eating bugs and being agile enough to stay out of the way of T. rex (or T. rex’s tinier cousins). Although there were some notable exceptions to this rule of tiny rat-likeness among ancient proto-mammals, mammals never became diverse and populous until the dinosaurs became extinct (Meng et al., 2011; O’Leary et al., 2013).

Thus, in the absence of that deadly meteorite strike, the chances are virtuallyAve Mariazero that any species of dinosaur would have ever evolved into a quirky, brainy, highly social creature that cares for its young for a couple of decades, sings , conducts psychology experiments, and is susceptible to both yellow fever and Bieber fever. Consider a whole class of animals that are even more ancient than the family loosely known as dinosaurs. Insects were around well before the dinosaurs, and they will probably be here long after human beings are extinct. But it’s exceedingly unlikely they will ever create art or write poetry. In contrast, you and I can do these uniquely human things, as well as a long list of simpler things done only by mammals. There is also a list of things done almost exclusively by vertebrates, by the way, but this discussion would take us back at least 500 million years rather than 66 million years (Kolbert, 2014; Shubin, 2008). Suffice it to say that because we are mammals, we have a lot more in common with our mammalian relatives than most people appreciate (de Waal, 1996; Diamond, We’re1992). not that special

You may have heard that we share more than 98% of our genes with chimpanzees. Perhaps that’s not so shocking. Consider the following thought experiment, adapted from Jared Diamond (1992). Take a male chimpanzee, and sedate him (so he doesn’t rip anyone’s arms off – chimps are incredibly strong). Now shave his entire body, put a Boston Red Sox cap on him, and drop him onto a New York City subway seat – making sure the train is headed to the Bronx. On second thoughts, replace the Red Sox cap with a Yankees cap – so no one rips the poor chimp’s arms off. More than 98% of subway passengers will see an ugly old man who should be arrested for indecent exposure. Chimps are a lot like human beings. This is why zookeepers who want to control their chimpanzee birth rates can simply give their female chimps human birth control pills. And it’s presumably why chimpanzees make tools, deceive each other, organize themselves into social groups, go to war, inspect the genitals of newborns to assess their sex, have sex face to face, and sometimes shake hands to greet one another – all very much like we do. According to experts such as and Jared Diamond, we have way more in common with chimps than most people could imagine. Speaking of chimps, both people and chimps also have a little something in common with bananas. What percentage of our genes, if any, do you think we share with bananas? Bananas are in a whole different kingdom than animals, but they are life forms, after all. When I asked my son this question, when he was a fifth grader, his answer was an impressive 10%. It was impressive because he seems to have appreciated what genes are, and he didn’t guess a tiny number, like a bajillionth of 1%. Because I want you to be smarter than a fifth grader, I should tell you that the correct answer is 50%. Yes, we share about half of our genes (or our genome, to be a little more precise) with bananas. These shared genes go back to a time about 1.6 billion years ago when plant and animal life seem to have diverged from a common, very primitive ancestor (Meyerowitz, 2002). I know that sounds weird, but science is weird, and aside from particle physics, there

is probably no scientific topic weirder than evolution.five key Ourfeatures surprising of evolution similarity to chimps and bananas, including the ancient point in our planet’s history when plants and animals diverged, suggests at least . FIVE IMPORTANT FACTS ABOUT HOW EVOLUTION WORKS Evolution is slow

First, evolution typically operates on a very long timescale. Both people and banana plants possess successful genes that have been in the global gene pool for 1.6 billion years. So, if I were to say that something evolved “very quickly” in people, I’d probably be talking about tens of thousands of years rather than a few centuries. Quite a few modern problems exist in large part because we have not yet had time to evolve solutions (adaptations) to living in a different world Evolutionthan the plains is conservativeof ancient Africa, or the valleys of ancient Turkey.

Second, when something works (like a gene that contributesboule to basic cell metabolism, eye formation, or sperm production), nature almost never abandons it to start over from scratch. Apparently, the single gene is necessary for sperm production in males of all species (Shah et al., 2010). It seems to have first appeared about 600 million years ago. It has been promoting evolutionarily effective male orgasms ever since. Without this gene, no male mountain goat, mountain lion, or mountain gorilla will ever produce even a mole hill of sperm. Did I mention male slippery dicks? Yes, that’s a real fish, and, no, they can’t make sperm without boule. Sperm whales? You already knew about them, but they couldn’t make any sperm without the boule gene. Without the action of this crucial gene, no male creature on earth is likely to produce any offspring, no matter how much action he gets. As another example of this principle, consider how eyes are positioned. The same PAX6 gene determines eye location in a wide range of animals from octopi to ocelots (Glaser et al., 1992). On the other hand, it looks like eyes themselves evolved independently in vertebrates (like ocelots) and invertebrates (like octopi). Homology strongly suggests this because virtually all invertebrates share one kind of eye structure, whereas virtually all invertebrates share another. These eye structures mean, for example, that Evolutionvertebrate eyes comes have blindwith baggagespots. Invertebrate eyes do not.

A third important fact about evolution is that organisms possess millions of years of evolutionary heritage and all the baggage that always comes with heritage. For example, most people, like many of our primate cousins, are born absolutely adoring sugar. The running joke at my house when my daughter was three was “You better finish that cupcake or you won’t get any broccoli next time!” Even a three-year-old who was riding the first wave of a sugar high knew this was a joke. This human preference for sweets was surely adaptive in an ancient world where sugary foods like honey or ripe bananas were precious commodities. Ripe

fruit is usually more nutritious than sour fruit. But in a modern world where most people are constantly surrounded by sugary foods, this natural craving for sweets contributes to obesity epidemics. And if sugar doesn’t get you, fatty or salty foods may get you for evolutionarily similar reasons.

preparedness

Along the same lines, we also inherited several kinds of from our ancient mammalian ancestors. Preparedness is a readiness or predisposition to learn some things very easily. It’s much easier to teach people to fear spiders or snakes, for example, than to teach them to fear guns or motorcycles. I don’t like guns, but I like the insanely dangerous machines called motorcycles so much that I keep one right in my driveway. About once a week I hop on it and cruise gleefully down the highway next to 18-wheelers that could squash me like a bug. In fact, even a speeding VW Beetle could squash me like a bug. In contrast, I don’t keep any spiders or snakes at home, at least not on purpose. In today’s world, though, guns and motorcycles kill many more people than spiders and snakes do. As a final example of preparedness, have you ever noticed how easily kids learn to talk? We’ll come back to this topic in later chapters, but I hope you can see this represents a wonderful kind of preparedness. We seem to be predisposed to learn and use language. Unlike craving sweets, however, craving conversation rarely gets us into trouble. In fact, using language helps connect us to other members of our species in ways that are simply unheard of in other animals. As sociobiologist E.O. Wilson (1978) noted, evolutionary pressures have guaranteed that we are not the “tabula rasa” (blank slate) that British philosopher John Locke once suggested. Psychologist Dan Gilbert (1989) put this third evolutionary principle (that of evolutionary baggage) colorfully when he said: “the human brain itself is essentially a reptilian weenie, wrapped in a neocortical bun.” By this, Gilbert mainly meant that people often stick with simplistic social judgments (e.g., first impressions) when it might be wiser to abandon them. E.O. Wilson (1978, p. 68) seems to have put a little more stock in instincts, arguing that: “Because the brain

Copyrighted material – 9781352002942 Copyrighted material – 9781352002942 ALLOSAURUS AND THE TERRIBLE, HORRIBLE, NO GOOD, VERY BAD DAY 9

can be guided by rational calculations only to a limited degree, it must fall back on the nuances of pleasure and pain mediated by the limbic system and other lower centers of the brain.” Where these two Harvard professors clearly agree is that the big brains that mammals enjoy are not quite as different from the brains of other animals as we might like to assume. A neocortex is an evolutionary add-on. I’m really delighted to have one, but it’s not absolutely necessary. Take away my neocortex, and I stop writing this book. Take away my hindbrain and I stop breathing. I’m quite sure, then, that some of the genes we share with birds and reptiles allow us to breathe. Banana trees simply don’t have these genes – either because they don’t need to breathe like we do, or because they can hold their Evolutionbreath for a impliesvery, very continuity long time.

A fourth important fact about evolution is that it implies continuity across species, especially species that are closely related. For this reason, evolutionary psychologists tend to emphasize the traits and adaptations we share with other animals. For example, Frans de Waal (1996) argued that we are not as cognitively or morally superior to other animals as we like to assume. In fact, many of the cognitive and social skills we thought were uniquely human are not quite as special as we once thought. Naked mole rats use tools – which help keep them from choking – when they dig elaborate underground burrows with their front teeth (Shuster & Sherman, 1998). Moving from the terrestrial to the celestial, there is strong evidence that crows and magpies can identify and long remember individual human faces. They are particularly good at remembering the faces of researchers who have trapped them (later to release them, of course). This holds true even when the researchers change their hats and clothing in an effort to disguise their identities. Ravens also make and use tools. So you might just as well discard that scarecrow you put up in the Eastside Community Gardens. It won’t fool any crows or ravens for very long.

“Well, first of all, Robert, I believe I speak for crows everywhere when I say that by just coming here to meet with me today, you’ve already answered one of our most important and long-standing questions.”

Copyrighted material – 9781352002942 Copyrighted material – 9781352002942 10 EVOLUTIONARY PSYCHOLOGY

Chimps are even more adept at making tools than ravens are. Very few aquatic animals have the fingers or beaks needed to make tools, but quite a few aquatic animals certainly use them. This includes fish and octopi that spray jets of water as tools, crabs that carry stinging anemones for protection, and octopi that strategically carry broken coconut shells for the same reason (Mann & Patterson, 2013). Further, like ospreys, cheetahs, and perhaps even some ants, chimpanzees engage in teaching. Mother cheetahs even scaffold their older cubs by bringing back live prey to their dens and releasing the live prey so that the cubs can do the killing. Scholars disagree, for example, about whether ants ever truly teach, but there can be no doubt that some ants engage in communication (e.g., compare Franks & Richardson, 2006, with Leadbeater et al., 2006). Both dogs and parrots have problem-solving skills that rival or exceed those of human toddlers, at least in some domains. Likewise, chimps, dolphins, and even magpies (a large-brained bird in the crow family) can readily do what we once thought only people could do – recognize themselves in mirrors (Prior et al., 2008). Some octopi also seem to be able to learn the solution to a complex, unfamiliar problem in a matter of moments – by watching another octopus solve the problem. social learning observational learning This last point is worthy of a little more attention. We once thought only human beings engagedCebus in (aka ). Psychologist E.L. Thorndike (1911) looked for evidence of social learning in monkeys of the genus , and concluded that: “Nothing in my experience with these animals … favours the hypothesis that they have any general ability to learn to do things by seeing others do them.” To his credit, Thorndike was quick to add that this question was not settled by a mere handful of studies. But others latched boldly onto his cautious conclusion that human beings may be special in this way (see Mackintosh, 1974). It wasn’t until about 50 years later that some clever experimenters showed that rhesus monkeys could learn just by watching. Darby and Riopelle (1959) set up pairs of rhesus monkeys so that one monkey could always watch another monkey trying to get food – by choosing one of two arbitrarily marked food cup covers. After the chance to observe just one trial of this monkey game show, observer monkeys who watched the other contestant succeedincorrect usually tried a similarly marked cup in their own separate cages. This worked just as well, by the way, when the unselectedclueless other monkey made the choice. That is, a monkey who watched another monkey screw up by picking the wrong cup usually tried the cup. Fast forward another five decades or so, and now we know that a hungry octopus can do something equally impressive. She can watch another octopus unlock the lid on a clear acrylic container to retrieve a delicious crab and immediately copy this novel and highly unusual behavior. “Octopus see. Octopus do.” Evolution is (pretty) orderly

A fifth important fact about how evolution works has to do with how individual organisms develop over time, and it, too, suggests a way in which we are very much like both chimps and bananas. It is this. There are many useful and important adaptations that do not exist at all at the beginning of an organism’s

life. Organisms develop, and development is almost never willy-nilly. Instead, things that are metabolically costly or biologically complex rarely develop until – and if – they are needed. Banana trees do not – and cannot – produce fruit until they have produced trunks and then fronds (leaves). Moving closer toneeded people, imaginedevelop how inefficient things would be if mammals were born sexually mature, with long horns, or with a full set of adult teeth. Things that are first first, and things that aren’t needed until later almost always wait. Of course, what is needed first varies radically across the animal (and plant) kingdom. On average, mammals get a great deal of care and protection from their mothers, and many mammals are born blind and helpless. Baby kangaroos do not need to see or hop when they are in their mothers’ pouches, for example, and they are born unable to do either. In contrast, most reptiles get little or no care from their parents, and most of them can see, move about, and search for food shortly after hatching. Making comparisons across mammals, gazelles can run within hours of birth because if they could not do so they would quickly become a meal for large predators. In contrast, lion cubs are born blind and helpless because few predators wish to deal with a protective mother lioness, to obtain an otherwise easy meal. EVOLUTIONARY PRINCIPLES IN PSYCHOLOGY

It‘s precisely because of the importance of principles such as baggage, continuity, evolutionaryand orderliness psychology that evolutionary psychology has done so much to enrich modern psychology. But what is evolutionary psychology? As I hope you’ve begun to see, is an interdisciplinary sciencepsychology that combines insights from and psychology. More specifically,evolution it’s the scientific study of how our thoughts, feelings, and behavior ( ) are influenced by processes such as adaptation and natural selection ( ). It’s the scientific study of how we evolved to be who we are. In the remainder of this book, I introduce readers to the fascinating interdisciplinary topic of evolutionary psychology. I conclude this chapter with an introduction to two key evolutionary concepts: adaptation and natural selection. In Chapter 2, I offer a tour of evolutionary psychological research methods. In Chapter 3, I discuss crucial evolutionary concepts such as genetics, sexual selection, and speciation. In Chapters 4–11, I discuss specific areas of psychological research that were directly inspired by – or have proven to be highly relevant to – an evolutionary perspective. The topics studied by evolutionary psychologists are as diverse and fascinating as the whole field of psychology, but the topic that has probably gotten the most attention in evolutionary psychology is sex. Chapter 4 covers human sexuality and mating, including specific topics such as mate preference, estrus, incest avoidance, sexual jealousy, and mate retention. Chapter 5 discusses the implications of evolution for lifespan human development. Chapter 6 examines the joys and pitfalls of parenting, grandparenting, and stepparenting, and Chapter 7 examines how we evolved to think and communicate. Chapters 8–11 provide an evolutionary perspective on (8) the nature and functions of aggression, (9) prosocial behavior,

(10) sociocultural processes, and (11) how we respond to death and dying. Finally, Chapter 12 focuses on the biological and cultural evolution of major social problems. For example, it examines how our evolved human nature may contribute to problems such as overincarceration, helicopter parenting, and climate change. Evolutionary psychologists provide surprising insights about all Adaptationthese important and topics. natural selection

This book will dig into an evolutionary perspective on sex in later chapters.Adaptation For now, let’s discuss why sex exists at all. From an evolutionary perspective, sexual reproduction is at the heart of adaptation and natural selection. refers to the ways in which species change over long periods to cope with the basic problems of survival and reproductionnatural in selection specific environments. It’s the way a specific gene, or set of genes, ends up sticking around inside one or more species. A close cousin of this idea is , which is the process by which genes that promote successful reproduction become more likely to be passed on to one’s offspring – compared with genes that confer no such reproductive advantage. A turtle’s strong, bony shell, like the turtle’s ability to pull all its extremities completely inside it, is a specific adaptation to the problem of predators who like to make quick meals of slow-moving targets.

“Really, Terry, all-in, again?! ”

A snake’s venom is a very different reptilian adaptation. This adaptation solves two problems­ – by serving both as a defense against predators and as an efficient method of killing one’s own prey. It is probably no evolutionary accident, then, that snake venom is not a stomach poison. If it were, how would highly venomous snakes stomach a meal into which they had just injected a generous dose of the stuff? Snake venom is only deadly when it gets into your bloodstream, which is why venomous snakes have special venom-injecting adaptations known as

fangs. So yes, the next time you want to win a large bar bet, go ahead and drink the certified king cobra venom. Just be sure you don’t have an ulcer and be careful not to bite your lip before you swallow. To get back to the point, adaptation is a specific consequence of natural selection, and natural selection is theevolutionary engine that drives evolution. If thisgenes reminds you of the phrase “survival of the fittest,” please try to rid yourself of this notion, unless you mean the long-term survival of the fittest . Excuse my French, but I need to emphasize this. Natural selection doesn’t give a darn about an organism’s survival. It’s all about successful reproduction – passing on specific genes to future generations. To be sure, it’s hard to reproduce if you don’t survive long enough to mate. But once some animals have mated successfully, they seem content to die. Consider salmon that tirelessly swim a marathon upstream – to the place where they themselves were spawned. After reaching their destinations, they “mate” in the peculiar way Bill Clinton says he did – without actually having sexual relations – and then they die. (To clarify this technical point, female salmon deposit their eggs in the water and male salmon squirt their sperm in the general direction of the eggs. The salmon then die rather than narrowly escaping impeachment.) One poor animal, the male honey bee, actually dies in the process of having sex. When male honey bees have successfully delivered their sperm to a queen bee, their genitals literally explode with a pop and are ripped away from their bodies (Judson, 2002). I’m not sure how that feels as it is happening, but I’m guessing it sucks afterward. Male honey bees die almost immediately after their explosive orgasms. If you’re wondering how this could ever be a good reproductive strategy, let me remind you that the genitals explode after the delivery of sperm and that queen bees are pretty promiscuous. Even more important, the exploded bee penises remain inside the queen and act as partial chastity belts, making it harder for other male honey bees to get their sperm past the carnage. This means that the gene or genes that created exploding genitals right after successful mating became common in male honey bees. If this still sounds crazy, you should know that the percentage of male honey bees who ever get to mate at all is ridiculously low (less than 1%). So the strategy of saving your penis for a second one-minute stand would almost never pay off. Natural selection promotes successful reproduction – not Love,the survival prey, of eat specific organisms.

Allow me to say itredback again. Natural spider selection may promote reproduction even at the expense of an organism’s survival. Another dramatic example of this comes from ’s . These deadly predators have been known to take down mice and small lizards, and they love houses and sheds. Because they’re highly venomous and love the indoors, they’re responsible for many painful bites to Australia’s human population. Back before hospitals acquired the right anti-venom, the bites of redbacks occasionally killed people. Like many other arachnids (and most insects), female redbacks are much bigger than males. In fact, males often live on the edge of a female’s web and scavenge whatever leftovers they can safely grab. And here’s where it gets really weird. When a scrawny male redback mates with a big, strapping female, which only a

Copyrighted material – 9781352002942 Copyrighted material – 9781352002942 14 EVOLUTIONARY PSYCHOLOGY

lucky 20% of males ever get to do, he almost invariably somersaults right into her fangs after copulation. Of course, this puts him in a vulnerable position, and about 65% of the time the female redback rewards this acrobatic feat by consuming the male just as eagerly as she consummated with him.

Figure 1.4 This female redback spider has just taken out a small lizard. There’s a good chance she’ll also take out and consume any male redback spider who mates with her. Unlike lizards, however, male redback spiders seem to sacrifice themselves quite willingly. What’s more, those who do so are usually rewarded with more offspring.

Why would male redbacks throw themselves into the mouths of their mates? Offering oneself up for self-sacrifice seems even crazier than accepting the offer. But studies of redback mating outcomes show that male redbacks who are eaten produce more offspring than the ones who escape being eaten (Andrade, 1996, 2002). The reason for this extra success is simple. When male redbacks are in the jaws of the females, they are not just hanging out. They are busily depositing extra sperm they would not otherwise have been able to deposit. Evolutionarily speaking, then, sex is just the way successfulreproductive genes make their way into future bodies. A gene that promotes self-sacrifice will be passed on precisely to the extent that the self-sacrifice promotes selfishness (e.g., lots of offspring). And this will happen even at the cost of the body of the unfortunate animal that happens to carry the genegene for self-sacrifice. By the way, I hope this bizarre story also illustrates that natural selection seems to happen mainly (if not exclusively) at the level of the rather than the species. Evolution is about genes. Genes are little bits of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) that exist at specific sites on specific chromosomes and code for specific proteins. Organisms just happen to be the vessels that carry thousands of specific genes around and do their bidding.

Play dead, keep living

After saying all this, I hasten to add that male redback spiders constitute a clear exception to the usual rules of natural selection. It’s normally highly adaptive for genes to promote the survival of the organisms that carry them around. The list of specific adaptations that promote survival is endless. In any one species, moreover, hundreds of genes all do their separate parts to promote survival in that particular animal’s specific environment. Camels, for example, are extremely well adapted to desert life. Their extra eyelids protect their eyes from the blowing desert sand. They’re also furry on top (to create shade) with very thin fur elsewhere – to promote heat loss. Their feet are wide to help them avoid sinking in the hot desert sand, and their legs are long and thin – to keep them far away from it. Camels also have a great deal of surface area relative to their total volume. A camel is shaped more like a radiator than a thermos. Speaking of radiators, a large camel can drink about 50 gallons (400 pounds) of water in only a few minutes, and they are great at holding onto any water they do consume (Schmidt-Nielsen et al., 1957; Wilson, 1989). In fact, camel poo is so dry that you can burn it, which desert dwellers sometimes do as a handy source of fuel. I hope it goes without saying that none of these specific desert adaptations would be useful for a raccoon, a bird, a fish, or a poison dart frog. In contrast, a couple of these specific adaptations can and do work well for other desert animals. Both camels and gerbils, for example, have really efficient kidneys.

Figure 1.5 Camels are extremely well adapted to life in the desert.

In contrast to highly unusual desert adaptations, some adaptations are adaptive in almost any environment, and the genes responsible for these adaptations are commonplace if not universal. Remember boule? Sperm production is importanttonic immobilityenough that nature seems to have taken no chances with it. Some pretty quirky adaptations are also more widespread than you might think. Consider , also known as “playing possum.” For many animals, from ants and birds to frogs and opossums, appearing to be dead seems to turn away many would-be predators. As it turns out, most predators strongly prefer freshly killed prey. In contrast to road kill, a healthy animal you just killed yourself is probably free of deadly viruses and bacteria. In fact, the minority of carnivores who don’t mind eating dead things have special adaptations of their own that allow them to do so safely. Thus vultures have highly souped-up immune systems. Even more important, they have stomach acid that is hundreds of times stronger than ours, stronger, in fact, than battery acid (Houston & Copsey, 1994; and see especially Smallwood, 2014). It is so acidic that it can kill virtually any pathogen a vulture consumes, including things like Ebola or anthrax. But if you’re not a vulture, you should usually steer clear of day-old sushi, and even day-old frogs or birds. This seems to be why many different animals have evolved to “play possum” as a method of last resort against a deadly predator. As you can see from Figure 1.6, possums are not the only animals that play possum. What I find most interesting about these images is how convincing they are. These animals don’t just look dead. They look like they’ve been dead a while.

Figure 1.6 A possum, a common swift, a leaf frog, and a brown widow spider, all illustrating tonic immobility in response to severe threat.

If you’re not so sure that playing possum could deter a hungry predator, I should note that, in the specific case of possums, tonic immobility is not a conscious effort to deceive. Instead, the extremely threatened possum instinctively enters a highly unusual state that truly resembles death. The possum’s breathing slows down to become almost undetectable. The possum’s limbs become somewhat stiff, as they might be if rigor mortis were beginning to set in. It all looks very real. It certainly looked real enough to fool me about six years ago. This was when an unlucky possum found itself in my backyard at the precise moment when I released the beloved canine ball of teeth and muscle I called Liberty. In the aftermath of Liberty’s attack on the possum, I shoveled what appeared to be a dead possum into a metal trash can and drove it at 5:15 a.m. to the nearest park (so I could still make my early morning flight). Let me just say that I’m happy that I got the possum out of the trash can before he really got pissed off. What followed still wasn’t very pretty, but both the possum and I survived.

“In closing, Faith G. Possum, devoted mother, skilled scavenger, and friend to us all. Now at this crucial time, David, if you could get that bucket of cold water and pour it on her face, just to be really sure.”

If you’re still not convinced that playing possum could ever be a useful adaptation, consider the results of a clever study of red flour beetles by Takahisa Miyatake and colleagues (2004). To see if tonic immobility could really ever turn away predators, Miyatake et al. painstakingly bred ten generations­ of red flour beetles in the laboratory. These pesky beetles are ideal for scientific study bec­ause they reproduce quickly and in large numbers. To see if playing possum could save a flour beetle’s life, Miyatake et al. checked to see how well possum-playing versus non-possum-playing beetles would do when trapped in close confines with a hungry predator. The researchers began with a group of 200 healthy flour beetles (100 male and 100 female). They then put each individual beetle to the test to see exactly which ones responded to a threat by playing possum (by “feigning death” as they put it) and for exactly how long. From each group of 100 beetles, they

Copyrighted material – 9781352002942 Copyrighted material – 9781352002942 18 EVOLUTIONARY PSYCHOLOGY

longest briefest chose the 10 of each sex that became immobile for the period during the artificiallongest threat test and the 10 of each sex that became immobile for the least period. They then bred the 10 male and 10 female beetles that played possum the and the 10 male and 10 female beetles that played possum the . After this, they lovingly raised each group of pedigree beetle offspring to adulthood, always making sure to keep the two genetically distinct groups separate. They repeated this selective breeding process for 10 generations, always sampling 100 adults and always choosing the top and bottom 10% of possum players in each successive group. In the end, they had two very different groups of beetles. Almost all the beetles in the group bred to be good at playing possum responded to an artificial threat by playing possum, for about two full minutes. The beetles in the other group hardly responded at all to the artificial threat. Either they never played possum at all or they did so for just a few seconds and then got right back to the usual business of looking for human crops to pillage. Finally, Miyatake et al. (2004) took each of these carefully bred 10th generation beetles and locked each one up, one at a time, in a clear plastic petri dish for 15 minutes – with an adult female Adanson’s jumper spider. They used a different spider for each beetle, and each spider had always been starved for a full week. Almost all the beetles did what they had been bred to do. In the group bred to play possum, 12/14 did so. In the other group, only 1/14 did so. More importantly, as hungry as these spiders were, they rarely ate a beetle that had feigned death. In total, 13 of the 28 beetles feigned death. The hungry spiders spared all but one of them. The beetles who failed to play possum were not so lucky. Nine of these 15 beetles became a delicious meal for their hungry hosts. Of course, it’s hard to imagine that a single gene is responsibleconvergent evolution for all the variations in tonic immobility that exist across the animal kingdom. Instead, tonic immobility in these different species is a good example of . Convergent evolution happens when much the same physical or behavioral trait evolves independently in species that do not share any recent ancestors. It usually happens because the ancestors of the different species who came to resemble one another faced similar problems of survival and/or reproduction. Another example of convergent evolution is flight, which evolved separately in bats, birds, and mosquitos – presumably because it’s a really great way to get around quickly. Thorns, quills, and spines are an even more obvious example of convergent evolution. As you can see in Figure 1.7, cacti, chestnuts, and porcupines all

Figure 1.7 Convergent evolution in three very different species: a barrel cactus, a chestnut, and the Indian crested porcupine.

evolved similar protective structures that make them undesirable to other animals who would otherwise love to consume them. Whatever the exact genetic basis of tonic immobility is, species by species, it is clear that a quirky instinct that makes animals look dead when they are in dire trouble can sometimes be the key to staying alive. Like the genes that promote self-sacrifice in male redback spiders, genes that promote tonic immobility can, in the right species and the right environment, remain in the gene pool for a very long time. That’s natural selection – even if it took highly unnatural genetic experiments on playing possum to uncover it. FOR FURTHER READING
