在一个圈养的同伴群体中,婴儿狒狒在玩耍时会使用容器、饮水器具和海绵等物品。狒狒后来使用纸、草和其他材料作为工具,从设计用于适应海绵和探测行为的装置中提取甜味液体。结果表明灵活的组合操作和婴儿狒狒自发使用的工具。这些数据与以下假设一致:(1)杂食性提取觅食的进化历史与工具的使用有关;(2)在对象丰富的圈养环境中自由玩耍可能有助于非人灵长类动物的组合操纵。(PsycINFO数据库记录(c)2016阿帕,保留所有权利)
Infant baboons in a captive peer group used objects as containers, drinking utensils, and sponges in the context of play. The baboons later used paper, browse, and other materials as tools to extract sweet liquids from apparatus designed to accommodate sponging and probing behavior. Results demonstrate flexible combinatorial manipulation and spontaneous use of tools by infant baboons. These data are consistent with hypotheses that (1) an evolutionary history of omnivorous extractive foraging is associated with the use of tools and (2) free play in an object-enriched captive environment may facilitate combinatorial manipulation in nonhuman primates.(PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved)
