Apes recognize friends they haven’t seen for decades, new research finds
Recent research has shown that apes possess the longest-lasting social memory ever observed in a non-human species: the ability to identify long-lost friends. According to a study published on Monday in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, researchers discovered that bonobos and chimpanzees could identify photographs of their former group members even after they had not seen them in person for more than 25 years. Old friends' photos elicited an even stronger reaction. The study was motivated by senior author Christopher Krupenye's experience working with apes and noticing that they remembered him even years after their last encounter. Krupenye is an assistant professor at Johns Hopkins University who specializes in animal cognition. Krupenye and lead author Laura Lewis, a biological scientist, set out to test this.
