Yeah, he's not even hungry.

Look at him.

Yeah, the zebras don't really have a choice.

In much of nature, you live near your predators, right?

That's just how it works because predators want to eat you.

And so, of course, they follow you around and they live near you, right?

So you might imagine a zebra should always run every time it sees a lion because that would be the obvious thing to do, right?

But if they did that, they would just be running all the time and they would exhaust all their caloric resources.

They wouldn't have time to mate.

They wouldn't have energy to mate.

They wouldn't be able to eat and sustain energy.

Of course, that's exactly what the lion would want is for that zebra to run all the time and then be exhausted because then when it gets hungry, it can just catch it with no problem.

So zebras then are incentivized from an evolutionary perspective.

They're incentivized to understand or try to understand when their predator is actually dangerous.

So when it's hungry in the case of a lion or when it's motivated to hunt.

If you have a cat at home, you probably know that cats spend about 20 or so hours a day sleeping.

It's like what they do most of their life.

Yeah.

What was he doing?

He was sleeping, right?
