Chimps in Senegal, West Africa are pioneering apes. They live at the hottest extreme of any chimpanzee’s range, and the land is only getting hotter. Jill Pruetz studies how chimps are biologically adapting to extreme heat through new and cool habitats: caves. Stream Evolution Earth on pbs.org and the PBS App: to.pbs.org/44Cuts5

We agree that by entering the cave these chimps are consistently cooler.
I saw what you did.😅
Considerably*
Yep. Thats the title. 🤦

Humor and sarcasm just always flies by you doesn't it? 🙄 Bye 👋🏽...
@@RoyCyberPunk true comedian. 💛
Imagine chimps started drawing on the caves😂
Planet of the apes and day after tomorrow looking really prophetic 😅
I mean we humans are apes, and we're kinda the top predator on the planet, you'll find us everywhere. If we can't survive somewhere we'll terraform the envoirment so we can. It kinda already is planet of the apes
@@thatpandaz6094 but the uprising. After we fall. Is that movie. Right after the climate takes us out.
The chillaxing scene killed me. Awesome footage guys!
I literally laughed out loud!
Caves always seem so creepy. I always wondered what the motivation must have been for our ancestors to explore them. I always assumed it was cold, it never crossed my mind that heat or protecting infants drove the exploration.
They are cold in summer and warm in winter. Exactly what we needed.
We're probably all gonna end up in caves again.😂❤
Ive been in caves when its hot out and they are so much cooler. Like how in some houses in the summer basements are the cooler room
Probably shelter to replace trees
😂
Assuming these chimps had enough caves to sustain genetically viable troop sizes, I see a gradual behavior forming where they daytime in caves, forage at morning and evening with some nocturnal travel towards communal water sources thus defining territories and troop versus troop hierarchies, along with hair plucking to reduce body heat, resulting in noticing that eyesight is better nearest a wildfire, thus a chimp will bring a burning branch into the cave in order to see within it, which is safer amongst semi-hairless apes. At this point, proto cave chimp begins.
The new humanity
And I just realized something several weeks later, that as a conservation attempt, they could install an empty monolithic dome with sleeping platforms within their habitat as cooling stations?
they will soon discover abandoned human made structures
yup chimps in abandoned mines that will be fun.
This is so neat to witness! Not the climate change part, but the part where adaptation turns into evolution! This kinda reminds me of the coastal sea wolves in Canada. The wolves are evolving into seals and these chimps are evolving into humanoids! So cool!
They already _are_ "humanoid", meaning they have physical characteristics that make them significantly resemble humans. The word you're looking for is "hominin," which is the family of animals that include humans, neanderthals and denisovans.
No wolves are not evolving into seals.
2 decades ago al gore said that by 2010 Florida's panhandle would be under water. Still hasn't come true, not even close. Maybe time to consider who you listen to
What are you smoking??? Get outta here
@@elijahmiller912the sea level rise in florida is quite noticeable tho. I made fun of al gore a lot in my life but if im being honest i give him credit for recognizing the threat of climate change early and taking it seriously. We’ve know about the human relationship to climate change for nearly 100 years now and al gore was the first person to ever really speak about it on a large platform. Definitely got some stuff wrong but if anything he was closer to the truth than his deniers… plus he invented the internet
Chimpanzees can be viscious and brutal just like.....
This is just so sad.. I know for a fact that it has warmed up quite a bit here in the North East US from what I remember in the 70's & 80's until now. We don't even get much snow anymore but maybe a dusting, and you longer need a heavy coat that's for sure. I can only imagine how much hotter its getting over in the warmer parts of our world.
Come to the UK, plenty of rain and snow.
Supposed to be a big freeze in the East this winter ❄️🥶
So it begins…
Stop watching sci-fi horror movies😂
Better believe dry heat or wet heat makes a difference at 107f.
I was doing the same exact thing last summer in Europe, laying down in the carpet putting my legs up. It was 🥵 so hot 110, etc getting a fast shower and going to the basement of the house. It’s becoming ridiculous!
Where in Europe?
@@glenndouglas8822 Spain, Madrid
@@glenndouglas8822even in the Netherlands it was 40 degrees Celsius this summer. 40 degrees is tropical and desert temperatures, in Northwest Europe? It was insane.
History repeats itself
I’ve been looking for a nice, cool cave myself. Build a sweet cave home. No luck so far
You could build a large basement (ranch) and bury it, the cooling effect would be the same as a cave.
Most caves are on govt land or private property sadly. I've been searching decades myself. I found one on a terrain map but it's a storage facility. Keep searching.🍻
They are turning into cavemen
spelunking is about to get quite interesting! can't wait to see what hollywood films some out of this!
By 2080, I think humans will be gone and they will slowly evolve into the next humans. Things will have time to go back to normal again in between.
If they don't go extinct because of us first. Chimps and gorillas should be the next animal in line after us to evolve to a higher life form. If they survive I hope they do better than we did to Mother Earth.
@justiny.8365don't think Orangutans have the social structures.
Nah, there would be Billionaires in bunkers.
0:00 is it just me with the music?
"Mary... Could you really be in this town?"
No it sounds just like that lol
It just was I, who noted that in minute 3:08 you can hear the chimpanzee blinking 😅. I know that in post-production they add sound effects, but that was ridiculous. 😂
At least it's better than BBC where a caterpillar eating a leaf sound like someone eating salad. 😅
Thank you. Very inspirational
This is gonna be me living in a cave if rent and house prices keep going up and not wages
I don't understand the love people have for these most vile and violent primates?
Chimps are my least favorite primate..... simply because they are nightmare fuel type evil sometimes but I do think humans are the most violent primate.
We're also vile and violent primates, I'd say more so than chimpanzees
People love bears and tigers too, and they are even more blood thirsty. We can appreciate animals from distance
We're no better
@@pitbullthedog668 predators aren't unnecessarily bloodthirsty. they hunt because they must. chimps go out of their way to massacre, humiliate and mutilate. they are capable of malice and cruelty
imagine if chimps starting evolving into a better, more equipped humanoid and reverse the roles and start dominating the earth leading to human extinction
What I love is the fact that I'm seeing sasquatch behavior
Desert Dwellers really should think about underground homes
Looking at you Arizona
there're several underground homes in Arizona. In Anatolia people lived for thousands of years underground. The gypsies, it is said, came from underground caves… humanity lived in caves to begin with
Life finds a way...
They're beginning to believe...
even chimps arre chilling
Evolution never stop.
Dude at 6:07 must be going to the theater later... He's already picking his seat. 😂🤣😂😱lol
they sleep on their sides same as humans
Amazing!
It must be hard to be a creationist nowadays.
Their caves are in their own heads 😅
not really, so long as they keep their wild claims to themselves and don't force it on others and they'll be fine
@@C-Farsene_5 Really? You do know that they don't do that. Instead, they homeschool their kids and lie to them.
@@benjamindover5676 yeah some of them are egotistical enough to preach, most are quiet and will probably be that 10 or 20 people who make up the likes in some yt conspiracy theory but yeah I gott agree on the kid part, indoctrination is a common problem in many religious and dogmatic societies
I think it is hard, yes. Creationists are very unhappy when people point out inconvenient facts.
That certainly makes the name Pan Troglodytes fit better.
This is freaking amazing woah
Yes, cool at night in a cave, easier to sleep, but maybe less safe than being in a tree,
There is a tribe that uses sticks and rocks and years ago the same tribe wasnt using tools.
This is clear prove of evolution.
The closed captions are out of sync.
the captions are minutes off from the program - its quite distracting.
Pre written captions are ALWAYS completely broken. Every video should have auto generated by default.
They have been there in it before!
theyve lived in the heat for eons they just found that caves are better shelter
Be very afraid when they start drawing art on the walls...
I wish you could be inside there minds just laying there. The only difference between them and us is we have cell phones
So these chimps are now learning how to shelter properly
Pretty soon they gonna develop air conditioning and chill inside watching Netflix
The Church isn't going to like this...🐒🚶🏃🤸🙈🙉🙊#evolution
Somebody show this to Hirschel Walker
Chimpo Naledi?
4:37 wouldn't it be learned fear, not instinctual?
Danger and instinct make sense, but fear of caves? Not so much, right?
Run to the hills into caves will save the lifes of humans in the future, again.
The UN need to help the people of Africa 😢
Maybe bigfoot is related to or took a similar path to things like this? Maybe they just saw one of these and thought it was bigfoot! Cave gorillas?
They behave a lot like babooons
It do be hot asf bro
I cant be the only non-american who hates hearing fahrenheit temperatures instead of celsius on most youtube educational videos. I mean like the majority of the world uses Celsius, why adhere to the three countries that still use a backwards system?🤦♂
The whole expannding savanna theory of the emrgence of bipedality is wrong. The earliest hominins we've identified were both bipedal _and_ built for climbing trees.
Geound bipedalism developed in forested areas, and the most recent common ancestor of hominins and panins probably moved around in the trees in an upright posture, and moved around on the ground upright, sort of lile gibbons.
Also, in savanna-mosaic chimps, more open vegetation is not associated with an increase in bipedal locomotion.
they are going to become cavemen then regular humans
They are evolving into cave men
No. Every species was created according to their own kind.
Background pads are distracting and annoying.
I wonder if this lady every heard of the Prime Directive? Not that we matter or anything
Here we go again with the we came from apes😂🤣😂🤣 all that college and still no common sense
This is a lie. A bearded man in the sky made humans with magic
You can always bring them water.......
Rogan must feel threatened lol.
I wish they didn't exist. Give the territory to Bonobos instead.
Maybe they will adapt to dig deeper or start their own tunnels
And soon comes the cancer
Lame
PBS (Propaganda Broadcasting Channel)
I haven't watched. Let me guess. Global Warming? Climate Change? Trump?
There has been temperature fluctuations of 10+ degrees over periods of months during this evolution
Their home is getting hotter ?
No, it's always been this way.
"No, it's always been this way."
Literally hasn't though.
No, it hasn't.
They have an 'expert' who has been on the scene for a long time to tell them this - unlike you, who's just repeating the now desperate, old line of: 'Go home, nothing to see here!' that all deniers repeat to each other, in the vain hope that others will believe you.
Well, we have news for you - we go out more, we pay attention to our surroundings and have noticed the changes 'for ourselves,' and we have memories greater than the span of a goldfish's - so we know that the weather patterns of the past are long gone, and that human activity 'is' changing the planet for the worse.

Nonsense.
