Many wonderful examples of chimpanzee culture and traditions, and how they differ between groups of chimps, as well as develop and change over time.

Shows chimpanzees engaging in learned termite hunting, bone picks for digging out bone marrow, sponges, herbal medicine, kissing, saluting/shaking hands, and leaf-tearing to signal others for grooming.

From the National Geographic documentary "New Chimpanzees" (1995).

  • @cryoes I'm a Judaica-style God lover :3 ...Only unlike some people I actually try making my own theories by combining others .-.

  • What is the name of full documentary?

  • maybe the leaf thing is to clean their teeth?

  • @Conflag12 Thank you. 

  • @cryoes We are unique in lots of ways, even while still being part of nature. Our evolution is highly abnormal. 

  • Dolphins are the most intelligent I believe.

  • @Conflag12: My God consists of the inter/intra-atomic forces that allowed the ingredients within the primordial soup to spontaneously combine into the components of life.

  • @Conflag12 I do :)

  • kill all the chimps before they evolve and become a threat to the human civilization !!

  • @cryoes Creationist isn't the same as a person who believes in god.
