They fight basically according to rules and prefer the bluff to the deadly seriousness. Submission gestures are recognized by the winner. Animals fight with "gloved fists." DawkinsVsLorenz: this interpretation can be disputed, also the human is not the only being who kills his own fellow-human beings. In fact, unreserved fighting fury also entails costs.

Dawkins: this must not be understood as a deliberately developed strategy of the individual! I 126 Definition Evolutionary stable strategy/ESS/Dawkins: an evolutionary stable strategy is one that - if the majority of the members of a population adopts it - cannot be surpassed by any alternative strategy. --- Lorenz I 71 Animal/Descartes: an animal does not act but is passive.
