Wright is no doubt familiar with the wars of the chimpanzees at Gombe, which are much better interpreted as fights over territory than fights over females.
We conducted the study in four states: Abia, Gombe, Kano, and Oyo.
And, actually, Goodall's own data, as synthesized in her magnum opus The Chimpanzees of Gombe , also support the idea that males fight over access to fertile females.
Robert Wright replies: Anyone who doubts that male chimpanzees spend lots of time fighting over females should read Frans de Waal's book Chimpanzee Politics .
