Apes comfort each other 'like humans' by SavePlanetEarth, journal

Apes comfort each other 'like humans'

Oct 15, 2013

Source BBC http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-24494230 Young bonobos that are are more "socially competent" are more likely to cuddle and calm other apes that are in distress, research has revealed. Scientists working at an African sanctuary found that bonobos that recovered quickly from an upsetting experience, such as a fight, were also more likely to comfort others. This mirrors findings from studies in children, and suggests bonobos manage their emotions in a very similar way. The work is published in PNAS journal. The researchers captured footage showing "emotionally competent" young apes rushing to hug other juveniles th

My Bio

Hi, not sure what to put here really.. I'm from the UK, I'm fairly shy & quiet until I get to know people, & quite introverted, but I'm always happy to meet people/make friends.

I enjoy reading, drawing, writing, taking photos, & some other stuff you can read about in the section below.... ;)

As you can probably tell from my uploads, I adore animals and nature, and they are mostly what I sketch (or photograph) but I am trying to learn to draw people as well.

The link below leads to the Blanford & Sturminster Newton branch of Cats Protection, I don't have a website of my own to link to anyway, and I volunteer for them (social networking) so I'm putting up their link up instead:

Any stop-motion animation fans?

0 min read

Am a huge fan of stop-moton and am sharing this project here to help spread the word for the creator of this project. http://igg.me/p/522398/x/4743112 Time/Space Reflections is a Sci-fi/Fantasy story about an inventor in the future that loses her twin sister tragically. To cope with her grief she creates a Time/Space Portal that can go to other dimensions. Meanwhile, there is another twin in a parallel universe creating a portal for similar reasons, she looks identical to the futuristic twin, but in this case she lives in a fantastical renaissance world and she is using alchemy rather than science to create the portal. When the portal open

Devious Journal Entry

0 min read

Hey everyone, Sorry I  just suddenly dropped off the radar (for those who noticed ;) )...I've been struggling with a lot of personal problems, in addition to moving house, but am seeing a glimmer of light now, and am hopeful things are looking up again finally. I will re-upgrade to premium when I can and continue features to support and thank my watchers and those I watch with features when I do. Thanks for bearing with me, I haven't done much drawing lately (I need/plan to start up again) but have started taking photos again recently which I will upload once I'm finally back into the swing of things properly. Anyway just wanted to drop in
