Ed Bugos on manias

Does any other animal on this planet suffer from the phenomenon humans know as mania? Do other species lather themselves up into a frenzy about tulips, beards, and what they often perceive as injustices, whether true or false? Obviously animals participate in feeding frenzies. But it seems to me that manias are uniquely a human trait, and one that is often our undoing.
