Arguably humans cooperate even more than they compete. Examples of cooperation are easy to find throughout nature. So is parasitism, but humans generally find that loathsome as a human activity.

The argument from nature is a fallacy. Just because something is doesn't mean it ought to be.

Humans also love killing each other enmasse, especially by claiming someone or some group is destroying the good cooperative group.
