I’m sorry if my question isn’t particularly clear, it’s sort of hard to explain what I’m thinking. Most things that are alive have at least some sense of self preservation, and I understand the very basics behind it. For humans, it comes from being prey. However, why was it there to begin with? What caused us to have such a strong will to live? What causes self preservation for any species?

Avoiding death is a very good evolutionary trait.
Evolution selects for life that manages to reproduce the most successfully. Can’t reproduce if you’re dead.
