摘要翻译：
亲子冲突理论是理解父母照顾动态的一个有趣的前提。然而，这一理论并不容易进行实证检验，因为在一个实验机构中，很难获得父母投资的确切度量。我们以印度野狗作为模型系统，在它们的自然栖息地测试POC理论，在断奶和断奶后阶段，母亲倾向于与幼崽分享人类给予的食物。我们的行为生物测试令人信服地表明，在4-6周的时间里，母亲与后代的冲突增加，合作减少。我们还证明了冲突是故意的，不受幼崽饥饿程度或产仔数的影响。

英文摘要：
The parent-offspring conflict theory is an interesting premise for understanding the dynamics of parental care. However, this theory is not easy to test empirically, as exact measures of parental investment in an experimental set-up are difficult to obtain. We have used the Indian feral dog as a model system to test the POC theory in their natural habitat in the context of the mother's tendency to share food given by humans with her pups in the weaning and post-weaning stage. Our behavioural bioassay convincingly demonstrates an increase of conflict and decrease of cooperation by the mother with her offspring over a span of 4-6 weeks. We also demonstrate that the conflict is intentional, and is not influenced by the hunger levels of the pups or the litter size.
