Journey into a revolutionary perspective on evolution where beauty, not just survival, shapes species. Through remarkable research spanning South African predators to exotic birds, we uncover how aesthetic preferences drive evolutionary change in unexpected ways.
This episode challenges traditional Darwinian theory by exploring:
- How female choice creates "useless" beauty in nature
- Why farmers protect predators they find beautiful
- The science behind animals' aesthetic preferences
- When beauty becomes a survival disadvantage
Featuring groundbreaking insights from Richard Prum's work and real-world conservation studies, we examine how arbitrary beauty might be as powerful as natural selection in shaping life on Earth.
