For the new study, a team of anthropologists, primatologists, physicists and geneticists from universities and research institutions in Zurich, St. Andrews, Barcelona, Cambridge, Konstanz and Vienna joined forces to trace genetic links between chimpanzee populations over thousands of years, using new discoveries in genetics to uncover key pieces of chimpanzee cultural history in ways never before imagined.

According to theory, there was a possibility: "Theoretical models have suggested that animals should change their social learning strategy when faced with new environments," says Chimento who is now at the Cluster of Excellence Collective Behaviour at the University of Konstanz.

"With animals feeding almost exclusively on Dipteryx fruit, they are simultaneously solving the same foraging puzzle," says senior author Meg Crofoot, a director at MPI-AB and Humboldt Professor at the University of Konstanz.

Two pigeons are pecking grains in a park in Konstanz.

To overcome this gap, researchers from the Cluster of Excellence Collective Behaviour at the University of Konstanz and the Max Planck Institute of Animal Behavior present 3D-MuPPET, a framework to estimate and track 3D poses of up to 10 pigeons at interactive speed using multiple camera views.
