On top of the compelling results of the tests with Terrace’s four monkeys‚ there are several other instances of unconditioned responses which suggest thought shown by Koko the gorilla‚ in Patterson’s studies‚ and Kanzi the bonobo‚ in Savage-Rumbaugh’s studies. In addition to Terrace’s monkeys demonstrating the ability to remember and apply lists in order to solve problems without the involvement of language(Terrace‚ 2011)‚ however‚ some other primates have been able to

The Ituri rainforest‚ found in the Democratic Republic of the Congo‚ is one of the most biologically diverse areas in Africa. Known for its civil and tribal conflict the Democratic Republic of the Congo is also known for the Okapi Wildlife reserve. The reserve is found within the Congo River basin‚ which is considered Africa’s main drainage system. Encompassing nearly one-fifth of the Ituri Rainforest‚ the Okapi Wildlife Reserve contains many endangered mammals and birds. Included in the endangered

Social scientists have studied it‚ lawyers have tried to fix it and post-feminist society is over it. But women are still outnumbered by men in math‚ science and engineering fields. Most overt discrimination against women in the sciences has been reduced or eliminated in recent decades through legal‚ academic‚ corporate and government measures. But a climate that is less than fully friendly to women remains‚ and its texture is often still so taken for granted that it tends to be invisible. The

What are the major groups of primates? I thought that this question was very interesting because primates are the closest living relatives to humans. Primates are fascinating because they resemble a primitive or basal version of ourselves and at the same time are also quite different from us as well. There is a large number of primate species both in the African and Asian continents as well as in the Americas. Those species that are found in Africa and Asia are collectively called old world

The Hominidae include orangutans‚ gorillas‚ chimpanzees‚ bonobos and humans.[1][2] Alternatively‚ the family are collectively described as the great apes.[3][4][5][6] There are two extant species in the orangutan genus (Pongo)‚ two species in the gorilla genus‚ and a single extant species Homo sapiens in the human genus (Homo). Chimpanzees and bonobos are closely related to each other and they represent the two species in the genus Pan. Members of the

know there is strength in numbers. It is clear that animals lack a human’s level of intelligence. Yet‚ animals have shown that they are capable of competency. A Bonobo named Kanzie communicates with scientist by using 384 symbols. Kanzie has also shown evidence of creativity‚ when given a vegetable similar to lettuce the Bonobo labeled the kale as “slow lettuce” due to the time it took to chew. How could an animal without the ability to think make this connection? This clearly shows that animals

INTRODUCTION Talking about human sexuality last year‚ I was asked whether the different sexual orientations could be found in animals other than humans. Well‚ the answer was “yes”. But sexual orientation is just a bit of the big whole called sexual behavior. That is why in this occasion I am going to talk about animal sexual behavior. To put you in context‚ the study of animal sexuality is a rapidly developing field. It used to be believed that only humans and a handful of other species performed

Apes and Language: A Review of the Literature By Karen Shaw For Professor Dyer ’s Class March 2‚ 2005 Over the past 30 years researchers have demonstrated that the great apes (chimpanzees gorillas and orangutans) resemble humans in language abilities more than had been thought possible. Just how far that resemblance extends however has been a matter of some controversy. Researchers agree that the apes have acquired fairly large vocabularies in American Sign Language and in artificial languages
