Imagine you and your hunting party are gathered around a fire roasting marshmallows, but you accidentally grabbed that stick..

I remember reading this article! Short version: they have 'fad phases' just like humans! About 10y ago, one got semi famous for putting grass in her ear, which then blew up among the others she lived with. Then sometime this year or last, the fad returned with a new twist: a different orifice!

Chimpanzees also display signs of culture among groups, with the learning and transmission of variations in grooming, tool use and foraging techniques leading to localized traditions.

And more approachable! All the chimps have access to assholes and grass. No one has to feel left out, as long as they leave it in!

[–] tomiant@piefed.social 2 points 14 hours ago
