The ontogeny of chimpanzee technological efficiency

2024-07-31

Abstract excerpt

Primate extractive foraging requires years of dedicated learning. Throughout this period, learners peer at conspecifics engaging in the behaviour (“models”), interacting with the model and their tools, and sometimes stealing the freshly extracted resource. This also corresponds to an extended period of tolerance from the models. Yet the long-term effect of variation in experiences during this period on the technol...
