Curtailing Chimpanzee Exploitation
Science, 2014As D. Grimm points out in his News & Analysis story “Lawsuits seek ‘personhood’ for chimpanzees” (6 December 2013, p. [1154][1]), our hairy cousins are getting their day in court. Legally, in the United States, the word “person” includes corporations, companies, and even boats, but ...

Chimpanzee Copulatory Behaviour
Folia Primatologica, 1973Observations were made of a group of adolescent chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes) living in one-acre field enclosure. In 1,200 h of observation, we observed 341 copulations involving six individuals. 34 elements of copulatory behaviour were described and recorded, including facial expressions, vocalisations, gestures, postures and locomotion.

As an increasing number of field studies of chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes) have achieved long-term status across Africa, differences in the behavioural repertoires described have become apparent that suggest there is significant cultural variation. Here we present a systematic synthesis of this information from the seven most long-term studies, which ...

Abstract Three subspecies are recognized: P.t. verus, the western chimpanzee; P.t. troglodytes, the central chimpanzee; and P.t. schweinfurthi, the eastern chimpanzee. Lee et al. (1988) and the IUCN (1990) classified the western subspecies, which occurs from Senegal to Nigeria, as endangered, and the other two which are found from ...

There are thousands of fossils of hominins, but no fossil chimpanzee has yet been reported. The chimpanzee (Pan) is the closest living relative to humans. Chimpanzee populations today are confined to wooded West and central Africa, whereas most hominin fossil sites occur in the semi-arid East African Rift Valley.

Theoretical Medicine and Bioethics, 2014
Literature on the mental capacities and cognitive mechanisms of the great apes has been silent about whether they can act autonomously. This paper provides a philosophical theory of autonomy supported by psychological studies of the cognitive mechanisms that underlie chimpanzee behavior to argue that chimpanzees can act autonomously even though their ...

Electroencephalography and Clinical Neurophysiology, 1971
The electroencephalogram and electro-oculogram of two unrestrained juvenile chimpanzees was monitored for 7 consecutive nights using telemetry methods. Of the sleeping time, 23% was spent in the rapid eye movement of REM type of sleep, whereas 8, 4, 15, and 10% were spent in non-REM stages 1 through 4, respectively.
