Chimpanzees planned a sequence of actions, adjusting them when necessary, just as humans do when performing tasks such as making tea. Chimpanzees, for example, grouped nuts and tools into “pieces” that repeated actions, such as arranging them before breaking them. However, not all chimpanzees used the same strategies.
The study, led by Elliott Howard-Spink (PhD), highlights the parallels between tool use and the behavior of early humans.
Professor Dora Biro emphasized the importance of preserving chimpanzee cultures to preserve knowledge about human evolution.
