Obverse spirit

"It is common for animals to forage for food until satiated, and then spend most of their time doing nothing, or at least nothing in particular.

Even diurnal animals, having limited amount of daylight in which to accomplish their tasks, follow this pattern. Social activity comes in a distant third to eating and resting for foraging animals. When more times must be spent foraging, animals are more likely to sacrifice time spent on aggressive behavior than time spent resting.

Extremely efficient predators have more free time and thus often appear more lazy than relatively inept predator that have little free time. "
