Robert Sapolsky “is an American neuroendocrinology researcher and author. He is a professor of biology, neurology, neurological sciences, and neurosurgery at Stanford University.

“Stress: Portrait of a Killer” full documentary https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eYG0ZuTv5rs which we have referred to for years.  Sapolsky’s video on being in Kenya every year to continue an ongoing research project he’s been working on for about 30 years now. This is the unique story of his Keekorok baboon troop, and how after the alpha males (the angry stressed members of the troop) died from tuberculosis, the remaining troop (mostly females) very quickly transformed into a very peaceful troop, and since then, a peaceful approach has become a cultural norm for them. A norm that has continued for 20 years now, and that also transforms other aberrant baboons from other troops that may wander into the troop.
