Tackling Hominin Tickling: Bonobos Share the Social Features and Developmental Dynamics of Play Tickling With Humans Open
It is under debate whether intersubjectivity—the capacity to experience a sense of togetherness around an action—is unique to humans. In humans, heavy tickling—a repeated body probing play that causes an automatic response including uncont…

Crocodile perception of distress in hominid baby cries Open
It is generally argued that distress vocalizations, a common modality for alerting conspecifics across a wide range of terrestrial vertebrates, share acoustic features that allow heterospecific communication. Yet studies suggest that the a…

Improving the workflow to crack Small, Unbalanced, Noisy, but Genuine (SUNG) datasets in bioacoustics: The case of bonobo calls Open
Despite the accumulation of data and studies, deciphering animal vocal communication remains challenging. In most cases, researchers must deal with the sparse recordings composing Small, Unbalanced, Noisy, but Genuine (SUNG) datasets. SUNG…

Baby cry recognition is independent of motherhood but improved by experience and exposure Open
Neurobiological changes affecting new mothers are known to support the development of the mother–infant relationship (the ‘maternal brain'). However, which aspects of parenting are actually mother-specific and which rely on general cogniti…

Disease avoidance, and breeding group age and size condition the dispersal patterns of western lowland gorilla females Open
Social dispersal is an important feature of population dynamics. When female mammals occur in polygynous groups, their dispersal decisions are conditioned by various female‐, male‐, and group‐related factors. Among them, the influence of d…
