eli5 How did people survive if babies cried how they do?

Question

Im not sure if the title made sense but how babies cry to communicate, did they do that in the like prehistoricy times. Cause I refuse to believe that people who were surrounded by bears, moose, just aggressive/kill you quick wild life, lived with screaming babies around.

There probably were quite a few human babies that were taken by predators. But you have to remember: we lived in tribal groups. 10 human males with weapons beats any single animal in nature. We were the top predator, not often hunted.
