Altruistic Behavior

Red Wolf. Canis rufus. Roger Williams Zoo, 1000 Elmwood Avenue, Providence RI.





African Wilddog. Lycaon pictus. Roger Williams Zoo, 1000 Elmwood Avenue, Providence, RI.
Both the African Wilddog and Red Wolf exhibit altruistic behavior by bringing food back to their young before they eat. The top picture of the African Wilddog is from the plaque at the zoo, since they bottom picture is harder to make out.
