Altruism
The lecturer mainly speaks about the close study conducted on mammal meerkat about their behaviour. The lecturer seems in disagreement with the author of the passage about the altruistic behavior of the mammal.
Firstly, the lecturer claims that meerkat guarding the group stands fully filled and does not really wait for the other members to gather the food. The author stands unaware of the recent finding and claims such an act of guarding meerkat to be an altruistic one. This fundamental difference actually means that meerkat never really cared about the peers but always cared about itself.
Secondly, regarding the act of alarm of meerkat, the lecturer posits that such alarm is quite frivolous and does not really help for the protection of the other family members. The meerkat is able to direct attention of the predator towards the others thus benefitting itself just to flee away. Such nuances of meerkat behaviours is ignored by the author and blatantly claims meerkat to be a saviour.
Thirdly, the speaker also denies the selflessness attitude in humans while helping others. The speaker claims such a person will seek for social acceptance and self-worthiness by quoting the example of kidney donor. The author neglects such side benefits and just keeps focussing on the act rather than motives.
In and all, the author and the lecturer seems in mutual disagreement regarding the altruistic behaviours either in animals or even in humans.
