Very interesting video.
Watched a lot of stuff about chimps and monkeys in the wild lately. We see more and more tool usage by them.
These are captive bonobos interacting with humans a lot but still. You can tell by their body languages and their expressions that they know what they're doing.
The one that naps flint handles the stones like an expert. His grip and strike angle and stuff is really excellent.
Really fascinating stuff.
