    For centuries it was thought that animals did not share the same emotions as us but new science is starting to change that view. Liz Bonnin sets out to explore the complex and diverse relationships that animals have and asks whether animals love.

      Not that I'm disagreeing with you but I do know for a fact that chimpanzees hunt and kill monkeys occasionally.
      Isn't that part of what made humans human we became omnivores?
      'Cannibal hippy monkeys' sounds like the title of a really bad horror movie from the 60's XD

      Tickle torture is regarded as so dehumanizing that it is the only form of torture that is referenced directly in the Third Geneva Convention, which provides guidelines for treatment of prisoners of war. Tickle torture is a particularly cruel interrogation method in which a feather, or sometimes an entire feather dusting implement, is applied to the bare skin on the bottom of a subject’s foot. The tickling sensation immediately elicits full-body convulsions and horrific screaming laughter, often causing the subject to urinate on himself.
      Historically, torturers would bind a person, dip their feet in salt water, and allow goats to lick their feet. In some instances, people were actually tickled to DEATH.
      During WWII, Nazis tickled their prisoners. From Heinz Heger's book The Men With The Pink Triangle: "The first game that the SS sergeant and his men played was to tickle their victim with goose feathers, on the soles of his feet, between his legs, in the armpits, and on other parts of his naked body. At first the prisoner forced himself to keep silent, while his eyes twitched in fear and torment from one SS man to the other. Then he could not restrain himself and finally he broke out in a high-pitched laughter that very soon turned into a cry of pain."
      One who enjoys tickling an unwilling victim is a sadist who enjoys inflicting pain and dominating and controlling others.

    • @DamianReloaded
      @DamianReloaded 6 ปีที่แล้ว +165

      And drinking 6 Lts of water at once causes water intoxication and death. Anyone handling you a glass of water is a sadist who secretly wants to murder the person he/she's giving water to. **rolls eyes**

    • @quarteracreadventures855
      @quarteracreadventures855 6 ปีที่แล้ว +125

      How on earth do you conflate the obvious sadism of 'tickling an unwilling victim' to 'handing someone a glass of water'?
      If you do not see a difference between the two, you should not be allowed to interact with other living beings.

      That still bothers me.
      Like, that movie had the potential to create an entire faction where the Orangutans and Bonobos form an alliance to oppose the attempts of Chimps and Gorillas to go to war with the humans.
      I would love to imagine that a lot of humans would join the Bonobo cause, with our many similarities. While the more socially-conservative humans would fixate on "war is a necessity" and "it's us or them".
      The entire dynamic of the show would pain a more optimistic view of humanity as we fight between our potential for great peace or great war.

    • @webx135
      @webx135 7 ปีที่แล้ว +17

      That's a perfect analogy, too. The theory is that the Garden of Eden was based on our lives before agricultural society.
      If that's the case, and the Garden of Eden was indeed the Fertile Crescent, I would think that we "Left Eden" and THEN "ate from the tree of knowledge", because stagnant civilization based on agriculture seemed to spring up out of necessity after the middle-east started drying up.
      History books treat agriculture like it was this great human triumph that resulted in easier lives. But everything turned to shit, and it took thousands of years before the quality of life caught back up to where hunter-gatherers were.

    So fascinating. It makes me think of playing with my dogs. Dogs don't laugh, but I definitely noticed body language that had equivalent meanings. I even noticed a particular posture that was one making fun of the other for a blunder, and the one getting made fun of would often raise their fur and act pissed. It was too funny. I miss my doggies.

    Bonobos continue to play as adults, "and that is unique in the animal kingdom."
    Except for dogs, domestic cats, big cats, whales and dolphins, people and chimps, crows, ravens and magpies, pigs, seals, bears, wolves, pandas, cows, horses, kangaroos, mice... more recently scientists have found evidence that alligators, crocodiles, turtles, fish, octopus, and even insects play. www.sciencenews.org/blog/wild-things/five-surprising-animals-play

      Thanks for the link. I will check it out.
      I have found a few BBC Animal shows that are pretty lacking in some of their assertions and basic facts. They did a similar one on Orca Whales over-analyzing the whales playing in the waves of a moving boat. Sometimes the answers are a lot more simple than animal behaviorists want to admit. As well, most times, animal behavior is far less limited in scope than than assumed by behavioral researchers. I do love the animals - they are marvelous!

    • @noneofyourbeeswax01

      Insects play? Please don't take it the wrong way when I say _fuck right off with that bollocks!_ Not having it. It. I. Not, Having. Am. Playing? The publication you cite seems legit - no creationsts in the closets so far as I can see - nonetheless, ending the section on insects with the sentence: "But those behaviors (sic) do look a lot like the play fighting seen among mammal species, the researchers say" is cringeworthy and not fit to be published in a reputable scientific journal.

    • @noneofyourbeeswax01
      @noneofyourbeeswax01 5 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      It is good to check your sources. "Science News" cited here is a legit non-profit for the promotion of science and science education, but bear in mind it is not a research journal or for the publication of peer-reviewed papers; it is a news magazine specialising in science.
      BBC documentaries however, make for some glorious images, but I would recommend taking the narration with a pinch of salt. The misinformation presented in their nature films are abundant, and sometimes quite fundamental errors. The BBC is not an educational institute, but one of entertainment. For the true facts I would always recommend checking what the professionals in the particular field(s) in question have to say. Which ultimately means scientists rather than the medium of news and entertainment.

    Interesting, but these ladies should be careful about the tickling. Tickling creates involuntary reactions that may seem pleasant from the outside but can be torture for those being tickled - chiefly to do with it short-circuiting the ability to breathe normally. There are also some signs that ticklishnish is an indication that the subject's body is not sure if the tickling is friendly or aggressive behavior, triggering an automatic reaction to indicate the subject's own preference for peaceful interaction+. Tickling can be fine in short bursts and in moderation, but if it continues without a break for more than a few seconds it can be a sort of torture for the subject. Watching this video, I got the sense that these ladies may have crossed the line a few times, essentially torturing the bonobos in their care.

      I have to say that while I was watching it, I did think that they were enjoying tickling the little bonobo so much that they weren't giving him time to breathe. Short tickles are fun. Long tickles like this, that never stop, are not. I thought they should have stopped a bit to let him breathe.
