16th Feb 2012 Photos That Amuse Me ...

Feb 16C
It has always been known that chimpanzees are highly intelligent, but up till now, the ability to make a fire and able to control it is characteristic supposedly exclusively to human. Not so!

Kanzi, a pigmy chimpanzee in the Centre of Des Moines, United States, has proven that presumption wrong. He knows how to strike a match, make a fire with dried twigs and leaves and, as shown in the photos, he was cooking himself a hamburger!
 
Besides, he also knows how to fabricate and use tools, as well as communicate with people via a special keyboard.
