But within an hour, it’s standing, walking, and nursing on its own. And a blue whale calf, after nearly a year growing inside mom, can swim to the surface moments after being born. Human babies on the other hand? We’re born unable to move or eat on our own, we can’t communicate or fully sense our world, and we leak EVERYWHERE. If humans are so smart, why are our babies so… un-smart? You may think it’s all about head size, but the real science is more complex.References: https://sites.google.com/view/why-babies-helpless-references/home Note: In videos like this one, we use the terms male and female to refer to biological sex and typical secondary characteristics seen across the human population.Special thanks to our Brain Trust Patrons:AlecZeroBob RossetBrent M.Diego LombeidaRon Kakarvincbis-----------Join us on Patreon! https://patreon.com/itsokaytobesmartTwitter http://www.twitter.com/DrJoeHansonhttp://www.twitter.com/okaytobesmart Instagram http://www.instagram.com/DrJoeHanson http://www.instagram.com/okaytobesmart Merchhttps://store.dftba.com/collections/its-okay-to-be-smartFacebookhttps://www.facebook.com/itsokaytobesmartpbs/ Learn more about your ad choices.
