War is very natural too for all the animals.

Violence, sure. War...not so much.

The only "war-like" behavior of other animals is that of some apes. The specifics are vague, but I remember that they had social groups fighting social groups for some reason unrelated to survival.
 
I suppose if you classify raiding as "warfare" you could argue that predatory packs attacking herbivore herds for resources (i.e. food) could be called war o_O

But of course, it's not among the same species...

AFAIK ants are the only other animals that fight real wars. Wars for destruction and conquest.
 
Ants and apes fighting for territory and if you don't consider that war due to much smaller numbers and no total destruction of the land it's because they cannot.
 
Ants do destroy, and they fight in huge numbers. Apes do something which is more similar to human tribal conflict. A lot of times there is no death at all. Really just a group dominance thing.
 
Chimpanzees organize hunting parties to kill and eat monkees, the small young chimps climb a tree and chase the monkees out of the trees and the old chimps hide behind bushes to grab the monkees and eat them. I saw this on the National Geographic channel and the show was titled "Chimpanzees, the Dark Side." The chimps also travel around in small groups looking for a solitary chimp from another group, then they kill the lone chimp from a rival tribe. I don't feel like I'm an evolved ape but the chimps display disturbing human style violence. I have noticed that this program is only on the TV when most sane people are sleeping. Two or three O' clock in the morning.
 
Chimps have been known to commit genocide,  fighting rival groups to the death. They've even been known to carry the 'war' on for successive generations.
