What is that chimp doing?
Once again, I was not being successful about personal names on the TV news so I decided to describe pictures. I found an interesting photograph on a book:
'What is that chimp doing?'
Chimps are very intelligent animals. That one (on the page 39), is using his brain to get some food. In fact, many animals use a stick, a branch or other things they find on the nature as tools when it is hard to reach a food - That is the reason way why I think that one is being more than smart.
First, he found a small branch in adequate size to be held on his hand and to be put on a small hole, invading a termite nest. Chimpanzees love insects, specially termites.
When the chimp pokes the nest with a stick, termites start to attack this 'strange invader' by clinging on it, so the smart Chimp holds on and waits some minutes until the branch has full of insects and he pulls it out and sees that his stick is covered with an instant snack.
That's fast food!
