we can keep fit by eating healthy and excising.Keep healthy and eat healthy.An empirical example of the inclusive fitness principle is provided by the Belding ground squirrel. Here, individuals give alarm calls to warn their group of the presence of a predator. By emitting the alarm, the Belding ground squirrel puts itself in increased danger by giving away its location. In the process, however, the squirrel protects its relatives that live within the population. In further studies, it has been shown that willingness of the squirrel to put itself at risk is directly proportional to how closely related it is to members of its population. Therefore, if protecting the other squirrels in the immediate area will lead to the passing on of more of the squirrel’s own genes than the squirrel could leave by reproducing on its own, the squirrel is willing to sacrifice itself, which leads to greater inclusive fitness.
