They have really beaten up heads, like half or even two thirds of adults have scarring and facial injuries, but you see healing on it.

whereas this foot does not show healing.

And it's got multiple different bites.

The idea that you'd bite a foot whilst fighting someone and then go back and bite that one foot again, that's pretty, not impossible, but pretty unlikely.

Yeah, and they're more like the feeding scrape traces than they are the big puncture wounds.

So again, not impossible, but very weird for that to occur as a fight.

So yeah, they're fighting.

They're fighting probably quite a lot.

Um, but whether or not you actually eat something that you've killed or that you stumble across as a body, it's definitely happens occasionally.

Otherwise we wouldn't have the record of that, but there's a reason carnivores often don't eat carnivores and particularly don't eat their own species, which is parasitism.

You know, carnivores in general are loaded with parasites because they spend their whole lives eating food which has parasites and stuff in it, and so they tend to accumulate a lot of them.

What's the one thing that's definitely going to have the most parasites in it that can infect you as, for example, a lion?

It's another lion that eats the exact same stuff that you do.

So whilst it is food, and particularly if you just want a big fight, you might want to eat, in general...

cannibalism is pretty rare because it's generally not a good idea if there's other food available.

But yeah, if you're starving to death or the other guy ripped your leg half off and you don't think you're going to walk for six weeks...

Not that you'd think, but you know what I mean?

Like, and now, and now there's a body in front of you.

There's two tons of meat.

Well, maybe you should tuck in.
