Exactly, and one of the experiments had different zones of comfort. One
was where the top males ran the show. There was another zone where
anything went. There was violence and chaos etc. And from what I
remember, most of the rats in the protected zone ventured into the
"combat zone-red light district" at one time or another on a regualr
basis. hmmmmm.
