A compelling, fascinating and strangely beautiful video. Have you ever seen a chimpanzee grooming a human? Nope, me neither, and this is absolutely amazing. The chimp’s very systematic, compassionate, and clearly knows what she’s doing.
Animals are way smarter than we think, and here’s the proof…

Continued thread

I’ve begun to wonder:

Do great apes in the wild show any signs of environmental stewardship?

Or are they genetically and/or culturally (learned or adopted behaviourally) inclined to eat until there’s no choice but to move on?

The human ape seems not to give a shit; it’s: eat everything; move elsewhere.

And it’s not just Trump.

Millions upon millions of us.

Billions.

How come?

"Well-managed #forests and community involvement are changing the narrative for #orangutan #conservation... YKAN has worked with local villages on forest protection, management and enforcement... This has resulted in a 29,000-hectare protected area as well as sustainable management of 532,000 hectares of #forest in a wider landscape."

#News: 🐒 #Chimpanzees’ remarkable tool use and behaviours may evolve over generations, showing early stages of cumulative culture, new research reveals. 🛠️🌿

But their survival is at risk! Chimpanzees, great #apes, and many smaller #monkey species face extinction due to habitat destruction caused by palm oil plantations. 🌴🔥

Take action: Protect their future by choosing wisely. #BoycottPalmOil #Boycott4Wildlife 🌴🔥⛔

This morning I solved some issues with my #apes #AlternativePhotography Exposure System 😁. The buttons are now safe red color. First time using it full screen to expose a #carbonprint. I gotta go through my notes to see what else to fix today about my #process. One was temp, the other was using hardened gelatin wet during transfer. This better work. I'm loosing my mind over how easy everyone makes it to be and how hard it has been so far. #cyanotype blew my mind when I got my first good print.
