Chimpanzees reliably produced communication behaviours in the event of a breakdown in coordination and differed qualitatively in their operation of our see-saw apparatus depending on whether they learned it in a social or non-social setting. (2/4)
Very happy to announce that our latest paper from our virtual environment work with chimpanzees, looking at efficient turning behaviour, is out now, fully #openaccess! More details in this thread from @realprimatthias.bsky.social about this study led by Sarah Koopman 👇
We discuss our results in the context of chimpanzee communication during social tasks and the parameters that do and do not constitute coordination from the subjects' perspective (3/4)
New #openaccess paper out now looking at social presence effects during cognitive testing with #chimpanzees, with @aurelfrick.bsky.social and Amanda Seed! This is an important finding for zoo-based projects where visitors can watch and learn about our research. Read more here 👇
Excited to share that the second paper of my PhD is now published!
Kea but not cockatoos are susceptible to a bait-and-switch magic trick. And check out that thermal imaging! ❤️🔥

Do you like to dip your fries in ketchup before eating it? Our cockatoos do too! In a new study in Current Biology, we showed our cockatoos innovated a new way to flavour their food: they dunk noodles in blueberry soy yoghurt.
