AnthroBiology Podcast


Jan 30, 2023

Dr. Kirsty Graham from the University of St. Andrews discusses how bonobos use gestures to communicate, which winds into a chat about what that means for ape communication generally -- especially humans. They also have some insights into field research.

Check out the article about humans understanding nonhuman ape gestures here: https://journals.plos.org/plosbiology/article?id=10.1371/journal.pbio.3001939 

Listener discretion advised: Bonobo behavior is discussed in this episode, which includes sexual habits.
