亲代抚育(指双亲对后代的保护和喂养)是高等生命演化过程中出现的一种重要适应行为,也是一些节肢动物具有社会性的关键.亲代抚育在生命进化史中多次独立演化,广泛存在于昆虫及其他节肢动物,以及哺乳动物、鸟、恐龙等脊椎动物中,但这种复杂的行为特征很难在化石证据中观察到. Parental nurture (referring to the protection and feeding of parents to future generations) is an important adaptive behavior that occurs during the evolution of higher life and is also the key to the sociality of some arthropods. Parental nurture has evolved many times independently in the evolutionary history of life, In insects and other arthropods, as well as vertebrates such as mammals, birds and dinosaurs, this complex behavioral trait is difficult to observe in fossil evidence.
