- "Kanzi, can you tell who this is? Tell Sue!"
This bonobo is a genius.
It has managed o learn human language.
Kanzi is an extraordinary ape, it was born with a talent never seen before. However, scientist wanted to see how far he could go so they submitted him to tests, each one harder than the last.
The questions were simple, but tricky.

And the story continues: Kanzi put humans to the test by making grunts, howls, barks, rumbles, and many more monkey sounds. When humans uttered no response to his noises, Kanzi came to the conclusion that humans are very stupid.
So are you telling me that after planning and conducting extensive research into the utilization of language that a common chimpanzee, without the benefit of any sort of scientific training, has concluded that a university educated doctor of science is very stupid? His hypothesis is flawed due to the nature of his experiment. He probably didn't even write down his findings. What a goof.
Say it for yourself.
@@silvestreneto9508 You have no sense of humor, have you?
What's more stupidly amazing is how stupid these comments are. This is a bonobo not an ape. Most people are casuals pop culture and have no knowledge of anything
Excellent. Made me think of Far Side humor which the world desperately needs again.

it beat minecraft

When you have an animal as smart as this, I hope they bothered to ask him if he was happy
Really good point
You can't see it? How?
@@darianstarfrog having happy moments is not the same as being happy. This is a clip show it’s not nearly enough information or time.
I swear he was waiting for them to teach him the words to express himself 😢but they probably never did or he would’ve said SAD 😞
@@darksoalsYou are very wise and observant ❤
Kanzi actually picked up some ASL from seeing a few videos of Koko. They didn't realize he knew some signs until he tried communicating with a person who had previously worked with Koko. Kanzi is truly amazing.
He's literally a savant. That's crazy
@SessmaruKusanagiGaming indeed. It's silly we as humans try to classify intelligence in such a straightforward way. But the truth is we can't. Intelligence is so much more than what we believe. Many different animals have shown us that.

“He didn’t lose his animal instincts” as if humans did.
Humans did. We domesticated ourselves tens of thousands of years ago. What we have left of our animal instincts are sad and pathetic.
@@eliteteamkiller319some did, not everyone, and we can still awaken them no matter how civilised
@@eliteteamkiller319well man I wouldn't say that I mean rapes murders cannibalism all the terrible awful primal instincts still there take away all the luxury and leisure of society and it's still there
Exactly, people talk about humans and animals as it if we are from different planets. We’re the same. Humans just happen to be more complex, less raw and primal but deep down it’s really similar.
@@eliteteamkiller319what’s with the self loathing man ? It’s not sad. We are capable of destroying and killing and we are also capable of sacrificing for others and being kind to a heart bursting degree. You need to get around more or change your environment that’s all.
As a Chimp myself, this video is very accurate. We learn the use of language very fast.
Funny comment, but Kanzi is actually a Bonobo, not a Chimpanzee
@@liltrashpanda174 , true. They are behaviorally VERY different. Some humans even argue that it's more likely that we descended from Bonobo's not Chimps.
---I and for one hope so since Bonobos are more peaceful.
But, it's probably more likely that some of the various different ancient humanoid species actually evolved from different apes and then some interbred.. and got us. There is even research showing that the different humanoid species interbred. (all though, there is other research saying it didn't happen.)
I don't know if researches are claiming that different humanoids evolved from different apes, but it just makes sense based on the timing. Natural evolution takes millions of years, a bunch of humanoids lived in the same areas at the same time.. it seems unlikely that they all came from one type of ape and then split off into different species fast enough to still be able to have sex.
If they did, it would be more apt to call them different races instead of different species.
@@OgdenM We didn't descend from Bonobos OR chimps. We both descend from a common ancestor from 6 million years ago. It split into Australopithecus (which eventually became us) and the pan order, which eventually became chimps and bonobos.
@@OgdenMbonobo and chimpanzee are visually different also.
@@OgdenM nope, we didn't descend from neither bonobos or chimpanzees. It's more complicated than that. Hominini was one single species till it branched into 2 species, Pan and Homo, around 5 millions years ago. Homo, through self-domestication process, evolved into Homo Sapiens.
As for Pan, it branched in 2 different species, Pan Troglodytes (Common Chimpanzee) and Pan Paniscus (Bonobo). The difference between Bonobo and Chimpanzee is that Bonobos are stated to start self-domesticating, which will lead, if they are not killed by humans, to a very intelligent species

i don´t think knowing 3000 words is a lot for humans

nah hed die in a week in the jungle😂 his only place now at least is with civilization😂
I wonder if he’s at the point where he thinks they’re being condescending to him. He can’t speak, but he clearly understands.
Did you see this video? He can speak, and he even finished Minecraft
@@NOname-qo3cg Jesus Christ I thought you were fucking with me
😅😅😅
The reason he learned while others didn't is because he was exposed to language at an earlier age. It's obvious.
Amazing what happens when you give a child/animal the right tools and oopprtunity
Kids are exposed to letters from an early age but not all have the interest to actually learn them, that’s why some kids can read at 3 years of age without much help and the some atill struggle at 6 after a lot of forced practice.
Cognitive abilities vary as much between humans, some are just uninterested and are bad at learning abstract concepts while others need to do it and can learn 8 times faster than most.
@@isaacvelasquez3892yeah we're just lucky that he likes to learn
Or because he thinks of her as an another mother and actually wants to make her happy?
I’m not fond of confining and testing them like this but it does serve to show just how amazing they are. The intelligence level here is higher than most human children. It really helps us understand some of our own development in the very early years of our existence.
Evilution is false my friend
@@peterjon777 dumbass
He is amazing but his intelligence is not higher than that of most human children.
@@mbb-- defnitly higher than 5 year Olds, less intelligent chimps have shown complex problem solving skills, like an orangutan that known how to make a hammock by tying knots.

2:01 Bro was HYPED for that rice 😭😭🙏🙏
It's pretty sad to think that chimps have a high level of cognition but the horrors they have to face from humans poaching them is almost like abusing children. I myself hope to see a world where we have the ability to give them a safe and secured territory
Yes if children had a habit of ripping faces, genitals and fingers off
First of all Kanzi is a Bonobo who are generally much less aggressive than Chimps. Chimpanzees are nothing to feel sorry for as if we coexisted they would rip us to fucking pieces in ways not even serial killers could fathom.
What they routinely do to one another is far worse than some dirty poachers.
@@sneakyfeats2353 your missing my point
It's one thing for them to have fights
It's another thing when we use guns to kill them. Chimps are brutal that's obvious but that in no flipping way justifies poaching
@@johnfairweather7012 thats bonobos
Im my opinion he looks more like a human than other Bonobos by quite a bit
I was thinking the same thing. In a lot of the shots he looks less like an ape and more like a neanderthal. Some day when we're long gone apes will have evolved into a proper subspecies of human. The only thing that we'd be able to tell apart would be their feet still being like hands or something.
In my opinion he looks more like a human than some people from my neighborhood
A giy who never saw a bonobo
No he not lmao
@@igetboredproductions Neanderthal? How? It does not look even close to them. Kanzi is more like an Australopithecus. Neanderthals looked almost exactly like us, they looked way more human than Kanzi
Even his expression of joy seems so human.
Maybe human expressions of joy seem so bonobo.
where do you think we come from🤔
@@seeuathebeach we both have a common ancestor
Yeah after watching this….these are def our “cousins” a Ape is a Ape
The male bonobos have such a sweet personality, and isn't temperamental at all. They are awesome
Primates.
Kanzi has also been taught to play computer games too. He's pretty good with pacman, and more recently he learned the basics of playing minecraft using a touch screen to control the character, and when working with another bonobo the two even beat the ender dragon.
You could see intelligence by just looking at his eyes as he was doing what they told him to do. He was clearly thinking.
By looking at its eyes? Come on. I've got students who look way more brighter than him, and yet fail their studies because they're idiots.
If Koko was still alive she and Kanzi could text each other all day and be even more human like.
They would bully each other on tiktok 🤪
But they could already communicate in Bonobo. Being humanlike isn't something to aspire to. Humans are a dangerous virus on the face of the planet and the world would be a nicer place if 95% or us were wiped off it.
nah Koko was a fraud... she was constantly being guided on what to do and often just imitated the researchers
@@MizTheDonGargonif anything that makes those researchers frauds.
Being from other groups, they'd simply fight to death.
I loved that he screamed for joy for the hot dog 🌭
Me too!!! 😂😂😂❤ 🌭
I love Kanzi. He's a bald old bonobo living in a sanctuary with other bonobos now.
He introduced me to bonobos. They're wonderful. ❤
This just brings me to tears. So intelligent! At the same time it breaks my heart that he's not with the other ape. This intelligent being deserves to be treated with kindness and love!
He was treated well I imagine.
Have you studied this subject is there something I haven't seen do you think they actually leave him as a solitary animal and not with others ?
He was in a social group together with Panbanisha and others. There is a full doku.
Imagine how intelligent those humans would be if they could understand the ape’s language 😅
Agree
My thoughts exactly
Yes
they don't really have a language, its more body language which we do understand, so jokes on you.
@@thephoenix4093Retard
Bless his heart . Such a beautiful intelligent soul 😍
They need to free the ape
You ever wonder who it is that says that about us?
Caged.
Bonobos are freaks. They f*ck instead of fight eachother. Polar opposite of chimps!

In 1985, Kanzi was moved to the Language Research Center at Georgia State University. He was later relocated, along with his sister, Panbanisha, to the Great Ape Trust, in Des Moines, Iowa.
Thank you, was wondering his present whereabouts.
You can literally see that he is different. His look even says intelligent. I'm impressed.
I also thought he looks different from other monkeys. He is a little scary!
Outstanding. People don't realize how smart these apes...and many other animals...are.
you can see his intelligence through his eyes ❤️
You are projecting
No, you cannot.
Even the face is almost like a human more than an ape, thats scary. He is genius
It makes sense that he was able to learn the language easier than adult chimps due to the fact that his brain was still developing. It's like how if an adult never learned to speak as a child, they would struggle a lot more in learn how to speak as an adult; however, young children can learn multiple languages very easily. I'd have to assume that adult chimps would struggle a lot more to learn to communicate with humans due to their brains having already been developed, especially if they were never exposed to human language as a juvenile or young chimp. I think younger chimps whose brains are still developing and are impressionable have a much higher chance of being successful in this type of expirement because they learn so much from their environment at those ages and learn by copying and mimicking others.
Or the adults just didn’t care about pleasing the humans
Kanzi always looked so different from other bonobo’s to me. I wondered if it was because he spent so much time with humans. Just an observation lol but I find Bonobo most fascinating out of all the great apes. Save the rainforest, save The Bonobo 🕊
İlk cümlesi "Devletimin vardır bir bildiği" olmuş, çok etkileyici 😮
Look at his eyes when he was listening.

The world is more full fo love than you think. We only hear about the bad because thats whats highlighted.
He does NOT "go on picknicks with his caretakers". He is literally being dragged on a LEASH. This is not cute or impressive at all. It purely shows how fkd up humans actually are.
“Within each of us lives a bonobo and a chimpanzee”
“Which one wins?”
“The one you feed the banana”
That’s all it takes, raise a creature from birth and teach it nothing but love and you will have something like this
This is a bonobo. They are peaceful. Chimpanzees on the other hand... Boy even if you gave birth to one it won't hesitate to rip yo face off if you trigger it
right, because there will be no hesitation and fear in them
If they taught him nothing but love he would know none of the things you see in this video. Did your parents take that approach with you? If so, I'm sorry.
it doesn't surprise me that Kanzi was learning words while his mother wasn't. His brain was still maleable and making new connections. Chimps mature much faster than humans and so the window for fast learning is much shorter. Children also learn languages with ease although adults struggle, but the length of time where they have this easier learning is much longer.
Kenzi it not a Chimp.
Am I the only one to think they should have used him to understand the other bonobos. No doubt their is some sort of communication between bonobos. That is what they should have learned more about.
They want everyone to just assimilate to their way, then they can make up false historical stories about planet of the apes
Yes! The arrogance of forcing the bonobos to learn English but not eve trying to understand them. Bonobos have unique social structures, are peaceful, and there’s no record of a bonobo ever killing another bonobo. I would love to see how he would translate a human question/thought to a bonobo.
@@jeanjeanie71 Yep. We have too much one sided thinking. Could have learned a lot more if they would have done that.
@iwannaapple7190 they are literally doing that but ok
@@Sammysapphira how does one bonobo understand another bonobo without the use of language?
I see how cool it is to be able to make experiments on banobos and chimpanzees, but why do you have to keep them in those horrible cages like they are Hannibal Lecter or something?
i know right! I was just thinking that, its hard to praise these scientists when they just treat them like some test subject, they deserve a better home. The video is cool and all but overall sad, they don't get to live a life they should've lived
Unfortunately chimpanzees (and yes even the Bonobo chimp seen here) are very powerful and unpredictable. The reason we see kanzi here is because he is a Bonobo chimp and that means he has the most agreeable temperament. But the scientists can't go in the room to hug him or something like that because if he got to excited he could snap your arm in half with only one hand. The cage is actually keeping us safe not the other way around
@HerocryTR Bbb what life do you beliebe they are living? cause im pretty sure most of the time they put him in a natural habitat or atleast an environment that is equivalent of such that can be found in something like a zoo
@@kylecityy and too add to your points it's been noticed that apes in these facilities actually show less stress then they're wild counterparts who usually have to fight for scarce resources, the apes in facilities usually are given more then enough nutrition to be healthy while not being too much fats

These loving, caring, sensitive mammals, need to be treated with great respect..
A good test would be finding 2 bonobos that have similar cognitive aptitudes to learn how to speak with the word boards and see if they communicate with each other more efficiently. I think orangutans have similar cognitive capabilities as bonobos. So that would be an interesting mix.
That young gentleman is truly amazing.
This guy is amazing.
Truly all animals are beautiful and amazing. Each in their own ways:)
We dont deserve them.
Those chirps are so cute, so much thinking going on behind those eyes.
Funny how a bonobo can understand human words but humans are too dumb to understand bonobos language.
FANTASTIC OBSERVATION !!! How come humans seem so DENSE?????
Because Bononos don't have a language! A language consists of grammar and vocabulary.
Bonobos dont know how to teach their language.
@@golden.lights.twinkle2329 Body language doesn't have grammar or vocabulary, yet it is said that a majority of human communication takes place in this form.
@@golden.lights.twinkle2329 this bias is perhaps the reason humans are limited in animal communication. The squid is capable of solving complex puzzles, maybe due to its complex color pattern communication.
I suppose I’m happy for him now, however, it cuts me to my soul that he has NEVER been allowed to be free. All in the interest of human research into his intelligence! Could he have been studied and had interaction with humans from a different angle? I feel passionately about it. Maybe the day will come when we are rounded up and studied by bonobos. A sort of Planet of the Apes senario? Much love to Kanzi and his human who has helped him lose over 25 pounds of fat brought on by poor diet and no exercise. Still i think he deserved to be free.❤
Chimps are incapable of employing the type of strategy you describe. . First of all, just to build a lab in which to study humans, a chimp would have to obtain some sort of degree in science and in architecture in order to build a viable scientific laboratory capable of housing humans. Theoretically, a chimp would be detected at a human university prior to obtaining the requisite education in order to pull this off. It is my firm scientific belief that if an average human is capable of detecting a Frenchie in their class, then they are capable of weeding out a predatory chimpanzee in this type of situation.
I suppose I understand what you mean, however, why can't we as aminals live together and help one another? Why do we suppose we must never interact with another animal we inhabit this planet with? That seems backward until I consider that most folks would cause a negative impact due to our lack of self-recognition. The best answer we've come up with is to place these creatures in a safe space where we can interact with them without harming them. We've had about 89,000 years of perfecting the practice, and this is as far as we've gotten. Do you have some better ideas other than leaving them in the wild and us in the non-wilds?
@@jC-rv5rr we can’t. Oh how I wish we could. Humans just don’t seem to want to. Personally I would love a planet where all animals could live in their habitats without human interference. The truth is we don’t.

Remarkable! People should Watch this and see that when they have a Child, it needs nurtured to grow and develop into all it can be! Anything can be taught with repetition. But Kanzi is definitely on a different level! He Understands! Him getting excited and verbal with displays of happiness proves he understands! But whats even more interesting than understanding the words, is his natural ability to show his Emotions and Understand the emotions of those around him by simply hearing and understanding exactly whats being said and whats going on! His Keepers and Teachers and all involved must feel Blessed to be able to be a part of this work and to just know Kanzi! Amazing!
'Understands' is not the correct interpretation of what his abilities are. His ability to associate is astounding, no doubt, but he does not understand what words mean in the truest sense of the term - no more than a 3 year old child does.
@@oliverpearson1577 My extensive research on primates indicates that they do not understand a single word. The introduction of a stout stick seemed to increase their intelligence and understanding, however this ended up being a fear based outcome. In any case, after several deaths in our control group, it became necessary to abandon our research prior to publication and our theory was never adequately proven. It has since been determined that chimps and Frenchmen share a common trait. They will pretend to understand thing when it is advantageous for them to do so.
@@oliverpearson1577 What exactly is the truest sense of understanding words? He clearly understood what water was for example, how much deeper can you really go? Maybe I'm a 3 year old too?
@@mad-scientist6027 No, you misunderstand what I'm saying. He doesn't know what water is, he only knows the association. His level of reasoning is below that of a three year old child.
@@oliverpearson1577 Ok, but, is he supposed to know the chemical structure of water or something? Even I barely know that.

Yeah, I realize his intelligence is not that of an adult human, but if he can point to what "water" is, doesn't he understand? He knows it's for drinking, what more does an ape need to know about water?

There is a lot more to that, then what you are sharing. She deserved to be removed. Do your research.
@@dreamcatcherjulie1 I have, explain seeing you're so opinionated on the subject. Please enlightened me?
This is a lovely video but inaccurate. Austin is a chimp, not a bonobo. It's also mixing images of a female bonobo, Panbanisha with Kanzi images to bring acrossed an idea. It doesn't mean that those who removed her don't love bonobos, but sometimes proper research and caretaking can cross a line. Tim Treadwell loved grizzly bears. It was the wrong kind of love and it cost him his life. There are things that Kanzi did that are not presented here, so... don't feed hungry coyotes in your back yard to be friends with Nature. The truth will come out eventually.
A group of 12 former employees alleged that she mistreated the bonobos in her care so she was removed but reinstated the same year and she eventually left and relocated elsewhere.
Kanzi had a huge heart, but the scientists were not heartfelt enough to perceive it.
2:11 he was like......eyy, you better eat
Wish he lived a better life. You can see all the live in his eyes. He smarter than most of us🤷🏾♂️
Smarter than you for sure
Its disgusting right. Its getting feed all the time and gets hugged by his caretaker what an awful life to have right? He should be in wild when it will be mauled and ripped by other apes and will die of starvation now thats freedom.
Speak for yourself. I know a lot of words.
Looking at that emoji, perhaps you're correct.
his excitement almost made me teary-eyed
Yes his intelligence is impressive, but what stood out most for me was at the end when he nonchalantly grabbed that huge jug of water with 1 arm. Wow❤😊
He could eviscerate a human within minutes.
"human Work" "what a wonderful day"
Humanity took a big leap when a human was able to learn a few chimp noises.
"They tested him and the words became more and more difficult." Balloon. Rock. Hot dog.
It's more impressive that he can visually memorize that many small buttons than the fact that he can understand the words. Dogs can understand words, and they are much smarter than dogs. You should associate the words with their spellings and see if he can read. That would take a humanlike jump in language intelligence.
Even that could reflect mere symbol matching, at least if it was small words. See if he can understand the structure of a sentence, or make an educated guess of a spelling.
People are now teaching dogs and cats to do this sort of thing with buttons. Granted, they don't have any where as many buttons. But, we're just starting.
memorizing 3000 buttons?
so this ape is way more intelligent than most of us. just play the game "memory" with someone. some humans cant remember 16 of such pics.
you expect him to understand the structure of a sentence? maybe apes have no concept of a sentence.
we don't even try to understand a single growl of him.
there was a similar experiment with dolphins. they understood very well, they even 'talked' back.
the problem was, that the language of dolphins was way to complex for us to understand.
do we need now to redefine "intelligence" ?
A wine ago I watched a video from the creator who made his touch screen word program that he's using in this video. I can't remember who it was now but the video was amazing with the program that they created and just how intelligent kanzi is to be able to even understand how to use it. What an incredible story and to be able to see the device in use that i was lucky enough to witness being created through the technology of today, it makes it all the more special. Very cool to see.
Absolutely amazing, he was so cute, I loved when he screamed with delight. I hope he has a happy life
He even looks smart when you look at his eyes.
It breaks my heart to think about the horrors these beautiful creatures face in the name of science
No doubt !
He is far more intelligent than most of my colleagues ❕
Truly amazing and beautiful animals. And to think that they are hunted in the wild, A lot more civilized than us don’t you think?! with their intelligence their ability to communicate and love it’s beautiful… the human race could take some pointers🤔💭
They hunt and kill chimpanzees.
Bonobos have a very different social structure than chimpanzees...who can get violent
Kanzi is crushing the Duolingo leaderboard while we can’t even beat Super Mario Bros.
All fun and jokes until he stands up and whispers to your ear "Peter Parker is Spiderman".
A simple "no" would be enough for me
He was chill like that
For anyone wondering, the mother WAS a success, and you can still find her video featuring her baby as a new born. I was most excited imagining they could use the symbols together, but it seems he greatly exceeded her.
So its not terrible he lives in the lab, you saw he goes out, but its all hes really known.
Well, even in humans, if we don't learn language by a certain age it either becomes impossible to later or only very basic knowledge can be acquired, usually with an inability to appreciate nuances of grammar. They started his mother as an adult, so her brain had already developed past those integral stages, which made her ultimate ability very limited. Kanzi was able to get much closer to the genetic cap of his intelligence because of developing the plasticity of those parts of his brain at a close analogue to the equivalent age of humans beginning to learn language. That's why the stone age lasted so much longer for humans even when compared with the expected rate of exponential technological growth. Chimps and bonobos have been in the stone age as well for likely as long as humans have. Kanzi gives up incredible insight not just into bonobo complexity but also with human development and understanding some of the things that have led us here and what has to happen for a brain to reach the ultimate potential it was born with. Kanzi's own children and others from his future tribe descendents may show an even greater understanding of language because of having this building block to work from and what kanzi has taught us and is actively teaching his own children, just as humans teach theirs to use words and writing implementation, they use buttons and recordings.
I'm wondering if they started her out as a baby with these experiments or was she already an adult, hence why she "failed"
@@Growmetheusjust because you see him inside doing experiments it doesn't mean the animal lives inside just like if we see your dog in your car it doesn't mean it lives in there you need to look at the whole picture and stop going off on these hysterical rants
@@moonrisestudiosco you lost me when you tried to imply apes just need more time to be as developped as us. We have assets that completely set us appart from them.
This guy smarter than ishowspeed
real as FUCK
🤣🤣🤣🤣
LMAO
Kanzi is amazing
That is SUPER cool and its so fascinating how smart apes can be, but is Kanzi paying taxes yet?
Soon hopefully. My eco friends don’t realize the only reason I’ve been on board this whole ‘conservation’ thing is because I see the potential to increase our domestic tax base
People used to think that animals had no real intelligence. All animals have some degree of sentience. Now we are learning that trees can communicate with each other.
The way his eyes lit up when he heard m&ms. Like he truly wanted them. His eyes popped and then he went right for that m&m button. He could care less about the sugar cane or juice. His whole head jerked up at that word lol. He must like his sweets 🤷♂️
He has such a sweet face, but I’m sad he didn’t get to experience life with others of his kind.
I love him. I have seen a few videos of his abilities.
Kanzi love to be caressed & affection ❤
Wow! He was the next step in monke evolution. That way he was so intent on looking for the picture of juice and the popsicle when they asked him. He looked so nonchalant. We don’t deserve such amazing animals. We’ve destroyed the earth already
MORE INTELLIGENT and better SOCIAL SKILLS than prince andrew.
The way his eyes dart side to side when someone is talking to him on the phone is very human like.
His name is Cesar 😂
Kanzi the Bonobo - Fascinating and Awesome at the same time.
He deserves the world we all do 😢but greed power and humans are not willing to share the earth
