Yup. #Chimpanzees not more aggressive than #bonobos

"aggression patterns diverge by sex: Bonobos exhibit higher female-to-male aggression, while chimpanzees show the reverse."

Wild chimpanzees in Uganda are drinking the equivalent of a beer a day Chimpanzees consume enough fermented fruit to test positive for alcohol, hinting at our evolutionary past.

Chimpanzees in Uganda 'consume the equivalent of roughly one standard alcoholic drink every day. They get their daily dose simply by eating sugar-rich, fermenting fruits high up in the forest canopy.' #chimpanzees #primates #anthropology #alcohol 🧪

Meet Tatu and Loulis—the last of the 'talking' chimpanzees In the 1960s and '70s, a group of chimpanzees astonished the world by learning sign language. Only two remain, and one question still lingers: Was it worth it?
