Chimps are grass and sticking in their butts, appears as a fashion trend

A group of chimpanzee in Zambia has revived the trend of an old fashion with a stunning new twist.

Fifteen years later, a woman named Julie, Chimpanzee, first pasted a blade of grass in her ear and began a warm new craze between her corort in the chimfunshi wildlife orphanage, a completely new group of chimps in refuge has started doing the same thing.

“We were really surprised that it happened again,” said Jake Bruker, a psychologist and the great monkey researcher at Durham University in England. As it happens Host nil kӧksal.

“We were even more surprised that they were spinning on it and spinning the grass and sticks in a separate hole.

The chimps, they say, are putting sticks in the grass blades and their ears and anus, and just let them hang there without any clear reason.

the study, Published in Journal Behavior Last week, how socio-cultural trends spread and change among our primate cousins, shed new lights on how they do among humans.

He learned it from us. This is something, anyway

In fact, researchers suspect that Chimps learned behavior to people – part of the ear, ie.

Two groups of chimps displaying behavior have no contact with each other. But they share some similar human carefuls.

And those actresses, study notes reported that they sometimes use match sticks or grass blades to clean their ears while working in animal sanctuary.

Chimps, Bruker says, “potentially copied it from a human who was running from the enclosure, or one of the carers who were just about their daily lives.”

“With all cultures, things change over time and they become sophisticated and new quirks and new traditions are pop up,” he said.

Chimpanzee influential

In this case, the team discovered the “New Quirk”, for a male chimp named Zuma, which seems to have originated from grass-in-butter variation.

From there, the study shows, it spread rapidly in most of its groups within a week.

The same happened with Julie’s group. He started pouring grass into his ear in 2010, and very soon, seven other chimps were doing the same.

The incident continued even after Julie’s death in 2013. Researchers rejected Julie’s group for this new study, and found that two chimps, including Julie’s son, were still wearing grass in their ears.

Like humans, Bruker says that chimps appear ready to suffer from fashion.

“You see that when they are learning the behavior that it is quite uncomfortable,” he said about ear grass. “They shake their heads and they rub the ear a bit as if they are trying to get used to it.”

Once they are adjusted, they say, they look largely unbalanced. He compared it to people who pierced their ears.

“There is no clear advantage that really brings earrings, but there is some kind of socio -cultural reason,” he said. “I think it is similar with grass in the ear.”

This is a suitable comparison, Julie Tycrob, a primatologist at the University of Toronto, says that the study was not involved.

“It just looks like an earrings, you know, a fashionable way to present yourself,” he said.

‘They spend a lot of time to see each other’s butts’

And for grass-in-butt variation of deposits?

Teichroeb says that it is possible that they are to make it more attractive for potential peers. The female, especially, she noted, to indicate to display an inflammation at the end of her back to indicate that when they are slightly receptive to the hunkie panki.

“They spend a lot of time to see each other’s butts,” she said. “So it’s not surprising that perhaps they were innovating like this to decorate their butts.”

Cultural differences between primates are commonAnd other animals too, but they often boil various ways to reach food and other resources.

Because chimfunshi is the human care in the chimps that feed them, Tycrob says they may have more free time to develop purely social trends.

“We think, such as silly, small futile cultural thoughts that spread among people,” he said.

“Learning that animals have similar, meaningless small behaviors that become fads and become viral, I think it really shows how close we are with them, how much we really share.”

Bruker says that it reminds them of the orkas that have been seen recently Wear salmon on your head like a hat – Last a behavior in the 70s.

The broker said, “It emerged again after 40 years, like flared jeans,” Bruker said.

In that case, scientists also said that the trend can be related to the abundance of food after many years of lack of food.

As strange as this study was, Bruker says that this is only the second most amazing behavior he has seen in Chimpanzee.

The most surprising thing, he says, when he was attached to two male chimpas “After struggle,

“Chimpanzee always gives me something new for his interest,” he said.
