| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Cognitive functions were compared among humans and nonhuman primates. The main targets were chimpanzees and bonobos, species sharing the last common ancestor with humans. Laboratory and field studies together formed an integrated approach to understand primate foundations of the inter-generational social transmission of information and technology. Six bonobos were moved from North America to Kumamoto Sanctuary, Kyoto University. We established a research system involving chimpanzees and bonobos in both the laboratory and the field. Comparative cognitive science studies in humans, chimpanzees, and bonobos were supported. Through these studies, our understanding of social learning in tool-use settings, conspecific killing in chimpanzees, and species differences in visual fixation points in chimpanzees and bonobos has been greatly improved.
