"The paradox of aggressive behavior is that it is both adaptive and maladaptive."
Aggression takes place on a spectrum of severity. Aggression is either human aggression or non-human aggression. Aggression that is seen as relatively subtle has been referred to as microaggression.
"[R]abbits do not attack those who fail to [warn other rabbits], and while aggression within species is very common, no animals other than humans are known to punish a conspecific for not performing expected fitness-sacrificing acts. A recent study by [Jensen et al] at the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology [...] suggests that even one of our closest relatives, the chimpanzee, does not engage in such ‘third-party’ punishment; it might be a uniquely human practice."
