Prosocial behaviors have been documented in primates and rodents.
“For instance, prosocial behaviors have been documented in primates and rodents60, 61.”
From Distinct selective forces and Neanderthal introgression shaped genetic diversity at genes involved in neurodevelopmental disorders (2017) · cites this paper as [60]
Mammals are generally believed to have acquired higher prosocial skills compared to non-mammalian vertebrates.
“Although lineages showing high cognitive skills are reported both among mammalian and bird species, mammals are generally believed to have acquired higher prosocial skills compared to non-mammalian vertebrates60, 61.”
From Distinct selective forces and Neanderthal introgression shaped genetic diversity at genes involved in neurodevelopmental disorders (2017) · cites this paper as [60]
The Conclusion (page unavailable) says experimental assessments of prosociality in other taxa have been rare and that more results are needed to reconstruct its evolutionary origins. Searches for a mammal–non-mammalian comparison found no passage saying mammals are generally believed to have higher prosocial skills. (LLM, conf=0.75)

Comparisons of prosociality across experiments are hindered by differing methodologies and measures.
“it is widely viewed and accepted that comparisons of prosociality across experiments are hindered by differing methodologies and measures (Cronin, 2012; Tan, Kwetuenda, & Hare, 2015).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
