Chimpanzee Problem Solving By Cooperation
Posted by admin, under Problem SolvingA brief, interesting clip from National Geographic’s “Ape Genius” documentary, demonstrating problem solving skills in chimpanzees, by requesting cooperation. Also shows chimpanzees providing assistance to humans, by noticing assistance is needed, and retrieving out of reach objects for their human companions. As time goes on, it becomes more and more obvious that the great apes are our evolutionary cousins. I would hope everyone viewing this would be able to share in my astonishment and awe at the brilliance displayed by these amazing creatures. More Information: sciencelinks.jp Transcript: www.pbs.org

that was awesome
The guy looks like Dimitri Martin, learning from a chimp the right way to drag a heavy object.
Oh, you may not have seen that because some sad people have thumbed down my comment lol
Me too, sadly it would end up ripping you to bits
Thats what I said
actually they won’t because they don’t understand the concept of pointing, they won’t look down the extended plane of your finger, they will just look at your finger
I would love to have a chimpanzee as a pet
MON-KAY!!!!!
agree! lol
thank you.
lol u mad?
ohhhh and also at 1:13
1:01 OMG THAT’S SOO ADORABLE
Awesome
Especially the part where the chimp helps the human.
ARRRRRRR i wish i had a chimpansey
So would a chimp. Its evolutionarily beneficial to be greedy; by no means exclusive to humans
the question is: if two chimps are shown the idea of cooperation, via the human helping them, will they help each other move the rock?
I assume no since it was not in the video, but its interesting. I imagine they would because they are a social animal.
the video was very educating!!! The Chimps are soooo cute!! = ]
fascinating… best part is @ 1:00 lol
These wonderful animals have more sense than we do. A human would figure out a way to use his helper without sharing the rewards of co-operation. GREED
so cool!
wow, this is so cool, stumbled from Nova Scotia, Canada
This video made me smile. Not many videos make me smile.
Stumbled from North Carolina
Try pointing at anything and see if the dog will fetch it. It can`t because they lack the ability to think abstractly.
