★Wolves in fighting will not bite off the necks of their companions, and crows will not peck the eyes of their own kind. If animals form weapons that can kill their own kind in the process of evolution, then this kind of animal must form a set of weapons in order to survive. A corresponding social taboo to prevent such weapons from endangering the survival of the race. Humans have created weapons other than the body and used them without restraint.
