I didn't hear him say 'evolutionary psychology' once.
Misleading title.

@AgowTisro True. The White-winged Chough (Corcorax melanorhamphos) (Australian) doesn’t so much ‘adopt’ as ‘kidnap’ the juveniles from other chatterings (collective noun). They live in large family groups with only one breeding pair - potential for in-breeding. It takes years to raise a chough - the offspring from previous years share the duty. By ‘adopting’ they decrease the work of rearing & bring genetic diversity to the chattering. Sorry, Richard (I think you are great BTW).

@imnotabear In nature, adoption is incredibly rare.

adoption is not unique to humans by any stretch of the imagine - not even inter-species adoption. Sometimes these smart people just need to sit down and trawl YT a bit and learn about the real world
