Interesting, but is it surprising? I would expect most species to adapt to surroundings, and if something works well for one, then surely there is a large chance it may work for other species too?
Perhaps a sustainable ecosystem is more likely to thrive if those at the top follow the same model patterns of interaction.
.. and perhaps, the fact that there's an evolutionary biological precident suggests that we were in step with a sustainable model for longer than we've been out of step.
It's an analysis of observational data. It doesn't have to be surprising. Anyway it's nice to get a confirmation of something we might have only suspected before.
