Wow...that was amazing!  I´ve read about Bonobos, but didn´t know they were that advanced.  I think we overestimate ourselves as humans.  Thank you for this link.

Did you look at the link? It really was amazing. Although I have read some on Bonobos, I didn´t realize they were that advanced.  Most articles only seem to focus on their sexual behaviour. In this one they were shown to write and do much other more complicated tasks.

 

It is interesting nobody has commented on the link.

Yeah, I know about bonobos, I am just surprised how positive you always are so praising of people you like, while some other people may post on more important issues then the bonobos, but you seem to be either negative about those or ignore those topics.. I do not intend to be judgmental here, but it does strike me..
