Thanks again. Why I agree, I also the the opposite. An sick and obese population. I see similarities with other animals that we feed (ie dogs). Humans and dogs are often in bad health at the end of our lives, while apes and wolves are doing well...

What do you think of this? BTW how did you get into this field, own interest (like me) or some formal studies?

(we're running out of replies, I may reply in some other way if you do not mind)

The population can get sick and obese and not die because we are not in the wilderness apes and wolves don’t have that great of a time they die the moment they become even remotely unfit.

For most apes in captivity the life expectancy is nearly 50% greater than those in the wild even those who are in reservations, for some it’s duble or more.

You will not find gorillas older than 30-35 years in the wild those in captivity live up to 50-60.
