Revolutionary Discovery: Menopause in Wild Chimpanzees Challenges Human Uniqueness

Research on the Ngogo community in Uganda reveals that humans humans aren’t the only primates with long post-fertile life stage. A team of researchers has been studying the Ngogo community of wild chimpanzees in Uganda's Kibale National Park for over twenty years. Their recent publication in the jo

Humans evolved to be the water-saving ape

 E-Mail DURHAM, N.C. When you think about what separates humans from chimpanzees and other apes, you might think of our big brains, or the fact that we get around on two legs rather than four. But we have another distinguishing feature: water efficiency. That s the take-home of a new study that, for the first time, measures precisely how much water humans lose and replace each day compared with our closest living animal relatives. Our bodies are constantly losing water: when we sweat, go to the bathroom, even when we breathe. That water needs to be replenished to keep blood volume and other body fluids within normal ranges.

Researchers take aim at the evolution of traditional technologies

Credit: Jacob Harris In the last 60,000 years, humans have emerged as an ecologically dominant species and have successfully colonized every terrestrial habitat. Our evolutionary success has been facilitated by a heavy reliance on an ever-advancing technology. Understanding how human technology evolves is crucial to understanding why humans have enjoyed such unprecedented evolutionary success. ASU doctoral graduate Jacob Harris, working with ASU researcher Robert Boyd and Brian Wood from the University of California Las Angeles and the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology, are interested in the role of causal knowledge in the manufacture, transmission, and ultimately, the evolution of technology. Causal knowledge is the ability to predict the effect of an intentional modification of a system, like the design and manufacture of traditional bow-and-arrow technology the focus of their investigation.
