| A '''Mimetic Crisis''' is when all the members of the group are participating in a pecking order fight: In the animal kingdom, the animal hierarchy and who gets to eat first is determined by one on one pecking order fights. When intelligence increases enough in the group, [[mimesis]] begins to affect this and at a certain point, all members begin to join in. The alpha can’t take all of them on and assert his dominance, so the crisis will consume the entire group unless it can be deferred.
