they call it counting but the idea is different. this is a failure of our language and there are a lot of other examples of this type of ambiguity. technically your idea of counting IS defined as one of the meanings of the word, but this is not the word which ought to be used when presenting data because to most people it suggests that these primates are actually comprehending amounts rather than sequences
Premise:
count == to determine the number or amount of
count =/= iterate a list of objects
