To study emotions in free-ranging #animals, researchers rely on what they see: but inferring #emotions from #behavior is not enough! Our new preprint discusses how #technology could help us better understand animal affect under naturalistic conditions: osf.io/preprints/os...

So much fun having been part of the Konstanz School of Collective Behaviour #KSCB2025 - lots of interesting discussions on the concept of joint action, what it is, and how it can be studied across species. Thanks to the organizers for this exciting opportunity!

🚨 Language connection FOUND in chimpanzees? 🧠🗣️
For years, scientists thought the key to human language was a fibre connection, missing in chimp brains.
New high-res brain scans just changed the game. 👀🐒

What Bonobos Can Teach Us About the Roots of Fairness
A new study explores how one of our closest primate relatives reacts to unequal treatment—and what it might say about the origins of human morality.
Bonobos refuse to cooperate when rewards are unfair, showing signs of inequity aversion. Their reactions hint at ancient roots of fairness in primate social life. #Anthropology #Primatology #Bonobos #Fairness #HumanEvolution
