On the evolution of hoarding, risk-taking, and wealth distribution in nonhuman and human populations.

Theodore C Bergstrom1.   

Abstract

This paper applies the theory of the evolution of risk-taking in the presence of idiosyncratic and environmental risks to the example of food hoarding by animals and explores implications of the resulting theory for human attitudes toward risk.
