kāpēc es to uzzinu tikai tagad. šimpanžu un cilvēku pētīšanas institūts ziņo: šimpanzes ir cilvēki (people)


New evidence indicates that the
technology and the communication of the
chimpanzee community meets the definition
of culture. We also know that chimpanzee’s
cognitive capacities are very similar to our
own, both intellectually and emotionally. By
any reasonable definition chimpanzees
should be categorized as a people


Modern people and chimpanzees share
an estimated 99.4% of our DNA sequence,
making us more closely related to each other
than either is to any other animal species.3
Chimpanzees resemble humans more
than any other animal.… Human brains are
very like chimpanzee brains. The major
differences between humans and apes are
not anatomical, but rather behavioral.

... Under double-blind conditions, we have
found that the chimpanzees communicate
information in American Sign Language
(ASL) to human observers. They use signs
to refer to natural language categories: e.g.
dog for any dog, flower for any flower, shoe
for any shoe, etc. The chimpanzees acquire
and spontaneously use their signs to
communicate with humans and each other
about the normal course of surrounding
events. They have demonstrated an ability to
invent new signs or combine signs to
metaphorically label a novel item, for
example: calling a radish cry hurt food or
referring to a watermelon as a drink fruit. In a
double-blind condition, the chimpanzees can
comprehend and produce novel
prepositional phrases, understand vocal
English words, translate words into their ASL
glosses, and even transmit their signing
skills to the next generation without human
intervention. Their play behavior has
demonstrated that they use the same types
of imaginary play as humans. It has also
been demonstrated that they carry on
chimpanzee-to-chimpanzee conversation
and sign to themselves when alone.
Conversational research shows the
chimpanzees initiate and maintain
conversations in ways that are like humans.
The chimpanzees can repair a conversation
if there is misunderstanding. They will also
sign to themselves when alone, and we have
even observed them to sign in their sleep.
