Chimp's run erect.

The most distinct difference between human and anthropoid ape such as chimp, orangutan and gorilla is the way they walk.

Normally we can stand with only two feet.

The reason humans can walk erect is that we can get more benefits with two feet from looking over the bush.

In other words, if other anthropoid needs it, they can do too?
In the video, you can see Yongyong which runs erectly towards the chimpanzee tower.

Of course, it doesn’t look like how humans run.
It looks a bit ridiculous so some of them look funny about it but the speed was really faster than we expected.

If walking erectly is the premise for living on the ground, how many generations an anthropoid in the zoo need?



Cause they spent more time on the ground than the other wild anthropoid.
