    Monkey see monkey do

    They didn't happen to mention how many times the chimp has done this exercise to get so proficient at it.

    Reminded me of people I see texting or whatever with their thumbs.

    That would be an interesting contest.

    I watched a documentary on that a year or so ago, some of the chimps were quite incredible. They did a test where they flashed up the numbers for viewers to try. I was less than useless

    Really what it shows is how arrogant humans are in considering ourselves so superior to every other lifeform on earth. Maybe they can't talk or do math but they far excel us in so many other ways.

    That they don’t shave means they have not acquired our various disorders either. More proof they are smarter than we are.
