“Within this basic picture, two extreme kinds of social structure are possible: the subordinate animals can form transitive dominance relationships between them (which results in linear dominance hierarchy, that is, Reference 96), or be equal to each other (comprising uniform, despotic group with one dominant, that is, Reference 97).”

“Dominant alpha males of many species also have higher levels of testosterone and cortisol that may be physiologically damaging (Gesquiere et al., 2011; Higham, Heistermann, & Maestripieri, 2012; Mendonça-Furtado et al., 2014; Sapolsky, 2005).”

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.
