NO WONDER people say “you act like a monkey” — researchers are stunned to find that chimpanzees communicate with gestures similar to their human cousins.
It shouldn’t be a surprise that people have a lot in common with the simians — in fact, 98.8 percent of DNA in humans and chimps is identical.
Now new research finds chimps shoot “rapid fire” gestures to one another at the same tempo and rhythm as humans use when talking with each other.
“We found that the timing of chimpanzee gestures and human conversational turntaking is similar and very fast, which suggests that similar evolutionary mechanisms are driving these social, communicative interactions,” says study leader Gal Badihi at Scotland’s University of St. Andrews.
