🚨New paper alert🚨 Male chimpanzees in the extra large #Waibira community @BudongoChimps, combine flexible core-periphery social structure & fission-fusion dynamics. Huge thanks to the AMAZING BCFS field assistants who are responsible for all the long-term data collection! 1/10

🚨new paper on chimp drumming led by @EleuteriVesta🚨 TLDR: #chimpanzees have individual drumming styles that share identity & location (when they want); drums act as a social network letting chimps check-in across long distances

🚨Our new study on the first vocalisations of a newborn wild chimpanzee is out in @IntJPrimatology! The capacity to combine calls in sequences, including pant hoots, is present since birth, but these complex structures undergo developmental changes. OA:https://t.co/v0LzagEwLi

@wild_biologist @LirSamuni @univofstandrews @st_psy @StAndEngaged Totally wasn't our intention to make people feel old, but this might be the most common feedback I've gotten 😅 Thanks for taking it though!

[Matthew Henderson @Hendercub]

10 days until #EarthHour! Many virtual events will be running during #earthhour2021, but consider that these events use a lot of energy that we're trying to save. There are many beautiful alternatives that don't use any energy! 🕯️🕯️🕯️Find out more here: https://t.co/xz6MtQ3OwU
