大脑大和智力高在新陈代谢上是昂贵的，但社会复杂性假说表明，尽管如此，灵长类动物的这些特征仍然受到与复杂社会生活相关的选择压力的青睐。如果是这样的话，那么具有灵长类属性的认知能力和神经系统应该已经在非灵长类哺乳动物身上收敛地进化了，这些哺乳动物生活在大型、复杂的社会中，在这些社会中，社交灵活性提高了个人的健康水平。斑点鬣狗(Crocuta Crocuta)的群落在大小、结构以及竞争和合作模式方面与天猫科灵长类动物的群落非常相似。这些相似性为社会智力和神经系统组织的比较分析提供了理想的平台。与天猫猴灵长类动物一样，斑点鬣狗使用多种感官方式将它们的亲属和其他同类识别为个体，它们知道一些群体成员比其他群体成员更有价值的社会伙伴，它们识别第三方亲属并对其家族成员之间的关系进行排名，并在社会决策过程中适应性地使用这些知识。对现有数据的检查有力地表明，斑点鬣狗和灵长类动物之间的智力进化是趋同的。有证据表明，鬣狗科中不太合群的成员缺乏斑点鬣狗的一些认知能力，这将进一步支持这样一种观点，即社会复杂性有利于哺乳动物智力的增强。
Abstract Large brains and great intelligence are metabolically costly, but the social complexity hypothesis suggests that these traits were favored nonetheless in primates by selection pressures associated with life in complex societies. If so, then cognitive abilities and nervous systems with primatelike attributes should have evolved convergently in nonprimate mammals living in large, elaborate societies in which social dexterity enhances individual fitness. Societies of spotted hyenas (Crocuta crocuta) are remarkably similar to those of cercopithecine primates with respect to size, structure, and patterns of competition and cooperation. These similarities set an ideal stage for comparative analysis of social intelligence and nervous system organization. As in cercopithecine primates, spotted hyenas use multiple sensory modalities to recognize their kin and other conspecifics as individuals, they know that some group-mates are more valuable social partners than others, they recognize 3rd-party kin and rank relationships among their clan-mates, and they use this knowledge adaptively during social decision-making. Examination of the available data strongly suggests convergent evolution of intelligence between spotted hyenas and primates. Evidence that less gregarious members of the family Hyaenidae lack some of the cognitive abilities found in spotted hyenas would provide further support for the idea that social complexity favors enhancement of intelligence in mammals.
