She had, like, you know, a good relationship with both Hutcherson and Richmond.

What about Monk?

No, Monk, she hated Monk.

Richman and Hutcherson would groom Garbo a lot.

Like zone out in this really zen-like state.

It's like, you know, I'm bald now, but I remember when I used to go to the hairdresser and get my hair cut.

And you could feel like the hairdresser running their hands through your scalp.

I would just zone out and ah.

Also, Richmond and Hutcherson would bring food to Garbo.

You know, share meat with Garbo.

Monkey meat.

Also... If someone would be aggressive to Garbo, often, you know, Richmond and Hutcherson would like chase them off, you know, protecting their mother.

Uh-huh.

No real grandmothering behavior.

No, she's not.

And so because... The grandmother hypothesis doesn't seem to apply to chimps.

The second most prominent hypothesis is called this reproductive conflict hypothesis.

In chimpanzees, males stay in their group for their whole lives.

But the females, the daughters, when they hit puberty, they leave their family group to join another one.

The general reason for this is like avoid inbreeding, right?
