Indirect evidence of tool-assisted hunting in the Bantan chimpanzee (Pan troglodytes verus) community in southeastern Senegal savanna-woodlands 在塞内加尔东南部稀树草原林地的班坦黑猩猩(Pan troglodytes verus)群落中发现工具辅助狩猎的间接证据

Chimpanzees use tools extensively, but tool-assisted hunting has been reported at only two sites thus far. Systematic tool-assisted hunting has only been recorded at the Fongoli site in Senegal, where hundreds of cases have been recorded of chimpanzees using tools to hunt bushbaby (Galago senegalensis) prey. Here, we report a putative case of tool-assisted hunting at the Bantan study site in southeastern Senegal, based on indirect evidence of tools and tool-making traces in a context similar to that observed at neighboring Fongoli chimpanzee community. If our interpretations are correct, the simplest explanation is that Fongoli females have dispersed to this neighboring community, bringing with them the behavior of tool-assisted hunting. However, the persistence and frequency of tool-assisted hunting at other sites in Senegal is still unknown. Tool-assisted hunting in the Bantan chimpanzee community would present only the third such known site for such behavior among wild chimpanzees thus far.
黑猩猩广泛使用工具,但迄今为止,只有两个地方报道过工具辅助狩猎。系统的工具辅助狩猎只在塞内加尔的Fongoli遗址有记录,在那里有数百起黑猩猩使用工具捕猎丛林幼崽(Galago senegalensis)猎物的记录。在这里,我们报告了在塞内加尔东南部Bantan研究地点的一个推测的工具辅助狩猎案例,基于间接证据的工具和工具制造痕迹,在类似于在邻近的Fongoli黑猩猩社区观察到的环境中。如果我们的解释是正确的,那么最简单的解释是,凤梨族女性分散到邻近的社区,带来了工具辅助狩猎的行为。然而,在塞内加尔的其他地点,工具辅助狩猎的持久性和频率仍然未知。在班坦黑猩猩群落中,工具辅助狩猎将是迄今为止已知的野生黑猩猩中第三个此类行为的场所。

First observation of fellatio by a wild non-estrus adult female chimpanzee on an adult male, and subsequent meat sharing in Mahale 首次观察到野生非发情成年雌性黑猩猩对成年雄性的口交,随后在马哈尔分享肉

Sociosexual behaviors such as mounting and genital touch have been extensively reported in chimpanzees. However, there are a small number of reported cases of fellatio, with only a few cases between captive juveniles or adult males. In this study, fellatio from a non-estrus adult female to an adult male holding bushpig meat were observed for the first time. After a series of sociosexual behaviors including fellatio, the meat was shared through begging behavior from the female to the male, suggesting that the series of displayed sociosexual behaviors may have occurred to reduce tension, so that the female could then make a smooth transition to begging behaviors. In addition, the fact that fellatio displayed between male and female in a context similar to previously reported cases of fellatio between adult males suggests that the social bond-strengthening effect of fellatio can also function between an adult male and female.
黑猩猩的社会性行为,如攀爬和生殖器接触,已经被广泛报道。然而,有少数报告的口交案例,只有少数案例发生在被囚禁的少年或成年雄性之间。本研究首次观察到未发情的成年雌性与手持丛林猪肉的成年雄性的口交。在经历了包括口交在内的一系列社会性行为之后,雌性通过乞讨行为将肉分享给雄性,这表明雌性表现出的一系列社会性行为可能是为了减少紧张,从而使雌性能够顺利过渡到乞讨行为。此外,男性和女性之间口交的情况与之前报道的成年男性之间口交的情况相似,这一事实表明,口交的社会纽带加强效应也可以在成年男性和女性之间发挥作用。

8 INTRODUCTION Besides humans, self-stimulation of the genitalia (masturbation) has been documented in many primate species (Dixson 2012; Thomsen & Sommer 2017). Although masturbation by captive nonhuman primates is sometimes considered abnormal or, at least, undesirable behaviour (e.g., Mallapur & Choudhury 2003), masturbation also occurs under natural conditions and may represent a phylogenetically ancient and widespread trait in primates (Thomsen & Sommer 2017). Several studies have reported masturbation in wild male primates living in multimale–multifemale groups where sperm competition occurs (e.g., Temminck’s red colobus, Piliocolobus badius temminckii; Starin 2004; Japanese macaque, Macaca fuscata; Thomsen & Soltis 2004; rhesus macaque, Macaca mulatta; Dubuc et al. 2013). While the hypothesis that male masturbation functions to increase sperm quality (Baker & Bellis 1993) received support in one study of Japanese macaques (Thomsen & Soltis 2004), masturbation leading to ejaculation was observed rather rarely in most reports, suggesting alternative explanations require consideration (Starin 2004; Dubuc et al. 2013). In chimpanzees, masturbation occurs commonly in captive settings where it has been linked to restricted rearing, which can impede development of speciestypical social and sexual behaviour (Kollar et al. 1968; Rogers & Davenport 1969; Lopresti-Goodman et al. 2013). Masturbation by captive chimpanzees is performed by hand, foot or mouth, against a cage wall or screen, or sometimes using a manipulable object (Shefferly & Fritz 1992). In the wild, object-assisted masturbation occurs in male long-tailed macaques (Macaca fascicularis), which stimulate their genitals using stones (Cenni et al. 2020). Such self-directed employment of a manipulable object meets the criteria of an animal ‘tool’ (Shumaker et al. 2011). In contrast to captivity, masturbation appears to be rare among male chimpanzees in the wild. Male chimpanzees of all ages at Gombe and Mahale, Tanzania, manipulated (or ‘fumbled’ or ‘fiddled’ with) their erect penises occasionally, but this was never observed to lead to ejaculation (van Lawick-Goodall 1968; Nishida 1997). Recently, Nakamura (2018) described an infant chimpanzee at Mahale ‘copulating’ with a discarded fruit wadge, which was likened to a ‘sex toy’. Besides this, there seem to be no other reports of wild male chimpanzees using manipulable objects as tools in sexual behaviour. We observed a wild subadult male chimpanzee at Bulindi, Uganda, using a novel human object—a discarded plastic bottle—as a masturbatory tool. While anecdotal (Ramsay & Teichroeb 2019), this unusual observation raises questions about the function of masturbation in male chimpanzees, and contributes to an understanding of the range in behavioural responses of wild apes to novel objects.
除人类外,许多灵长类动物也有生殖器自我刺激(手淫)的记录(Dixson 2012;Thomsen & Sommer 2017)。尽管圈养的非人类灵长类动物的手淫有时被认为是不正常的,或者至少是不受欢迎的行为(例如,Mallapur & Choudhury 2003),但手淫也会在自然条件下发生,可能代表了灵长类动物中一种古老而普遍的特征(Thomsen & Sommer 2017)。一些研究报告了生活在多雌多雄群体中的野生雄性灵长类动物的自慰行为,这些群体中存在精子竞争(例如,Temminck的红疣猴,Piliocolobus badius temminckii;Starin 2004;日本猕猴;Thomsen & Soltis 2004;恒河猴,猕猴;Dubuc et al. 2013)。虽然男性手淫可以提高精子质量的假设(Baker & Bellis 1993)在一项日本猕猴研究中得到了支持(Thomsen & Soltis 2004),但在大多数报告中很少观察到手淫导致射精,这表明需要考虑其他解释(Starin 2004;Dubuc et al. 2013)。在黑猩猩中,手淫通常发生在圈养环境中,这与受到限制的饲养有关,这可能阻碍特有的社会和性行为的发展(Kollar等人,1968;Rogers & Davenport 1969;lopret - goodman et al. 2013)。被囚禁的黑猩猩通过手、脚或嘴对着笼子的墙壁或屏风进行自慰,有时也会使用可操纵的物体(Shefferly & Fritz 1992)。在野外,雄性长尾猕猴(Macaca fascicularis)会进行物体辅助手淫,它们会用石头刺激生殖器(Cenni et al. 2020)。这种对可操纵物体的自主使用符合动物“工具”的标准(Shumaker et al. 2011)。与圈养相比,野生雄性黑猩猩似乎很少自慰。在坦桑尼亚的贡贝和马哈尔,所有年龄段的雄性黑猩猩偶尔会操纵(或“摸索”或“摆弄”)它们勃起的阴茎,但这从未被观察到导致射精(van lawwick - goodall 1968;Nishida 1997)。最近,Nakamura(2018)描述了马哈尔的一只婴儿黑猩猩与一个废弃的水果wagge“交配”,这被比作“性玩具”。除此之外,似乎没有其他关于野生雄性黑猩猩使用可操纵的物体作为性行为工具的报道。我们在乌干达布林迪观察到一只野生的亚成年雄性黑猩猩,它使用一种新的人类物品——一个废弃的塑料瓶——作为手淫的工具。虽然这是轶事(Ramsay & Teichroeb 2019),但这一不寻常的观察结果引发了人们对雄性黑猩猩自慰功能的质疑,并有助于理解野生猿类对新物体的行为反应范围。

Chimpanzee Culture Wars: Rethinking Human Nature alongside Japanese, European, and American Cultural Primatologists By Nicolas Langlitz 《黑猩猩文化战争:与日本、欧洲和美国的灵长类文化学家一起反思人性》尼古拉斯·兰利茨著

24 When the editor-inchief of PAN contacted me to review this book, I was somewhat hesitant. This was not because I was uninterested, but because it takes me a signif icant amount of t ime to read through a 352-page academic book in English. The reading process actually took three weeks, not simply because of my modest English ability, but also because the book contained rather intricate philosophical discussions referring to Rousseau, Heidegger, Merleau‒Ponty, etc. Nonetheless, I felt compelled to finish because the book’s theme is quite relevant to my own research and many of the people mentioned in the text are familiar to me. In brief, this book is an ethnography of “cultural primatologists” studying chimpanzees. Two famous primatologists, one from Europe and another from Japan, are the main figures of the book, although many other supporting individuals appear at relevant points. These two eminent scholars differ in various ways, which readers will learn in detail from the book, but I would like to highlight their commonalities. First, both study western subspecies of chimpanzees, field studies of which started later than those of eastern subspecies. Second, both belong to academic institutions where they were able to delve entirely into research, avoiding the need to devote time to undergraduate teaching. Third, the two were heads of their respective institutions while also conducting their own research projects (so, they have long been “alpha males!”). Fourth, their research teams are highly international in terms of membership. I draw attention to these points as I think they can affect the behaviors of researchers in the same way as the leaders’ regional or cultural origins. The descriptions of these two stalwarts by Langlitz were quite interesting and useful. Being Japanese myself, I was more familiar with the situation in Japan, but discovered a great deal from accounts of the Max Planck team. For example, it was interesting to learn of the very refined hygiene measures taken at the field site, the important role of a specialized statistician at the institute, the overhabituation problem of chimpanzees, and the tendency for students to rely exclusively on electronic devices to take data and even to read e-books in the forest (though this last point may be more of a generational difference than a cultural one), etc. Perhaps Western readers can learn likewise from descriptions of the Japanese side. The aim of this book is not just to describe the behaviors of two human alpha males, of course. By going into the field sites and laboratories of these primatologists, Langlitz’s ultimate aim is to understand the reflections of “cultural primatologists” from the viewpoint of cultural anthropology. While Langlitz is well aware that his observations are “very much skewed toward the researchers who allowed me” (p. 12), he looks more broadly at the controversy over whether or not chimpanzees have cultures by comparing the backgrounds of “field stu
24当PAN总编辑联系我评论这本书时,我有些犹豫。这并不是因为我不感兴趣,而是因为阅读一本352页的英文学术书籍要花费我大量的时间。整个阅读过程实际上花了三个星期,这不仅仅是因为我的英语水平一般,还因为这本书包含了相当复杂的哲学讨论,涉及卢梭、海德格尔、梅洛-庞蒂等人。尽管如此,我还是觉得有必要把这本书读完,因为这本书的主题与我自己的研究非常相关,而且书中提到的许多人我都很熟悉。简而言之,这本书是一本研究黑猩猩的“文化灵长类动物学家”的人种志。两位著名的灵长类动物学家,一位来自欧洲,另一位来自日本,是这本书的主要人物,尽管在相关的地方出现了许多其他的辅助人物。这两位杰出的学者在许多方面存在差异,读者将从书中详细了解,但我想强调他们的共同点。首先,他们都研究黑猩猩的西部亚种,对西部亚种的实地研究开始得晚于对东部亚种的实地研究。其次,他们都属于学术机构,在那里他们可以完全钻研研究,避免花时间在本科教学上。第三,两人都是各自机构的负责人,同时也在进行自己的研究项目(所以,他们一直是“男性领袖”!)第四,他们的研究团队在成员方面高度国际化。我提请注意这些点,因为我认为它们可以影响研究人员的行为,就像领导者的地域或文化出身一样。朗利茨对这两位中坚分子的描述既有趣又有用。作为日本人,我对日本的情况比较熟悉,但从马克斯·普朗克团队的描述中发现了很多。例如,了解到在野外采取的非常精细的卫生措施,研究所专业统计学家的重要作用,黑猩猩的过度习惯问题,以及学生完全依赖电子设备获取数据甚至在森林中阅读电子书的趋势(尽管最后一点可能更多的是代际差异,而不是文化差异),等等,这是很有趣的。也许西方读者可以从日本方面的描述中学到同样的东西。当然,这本书的目的不仅仅是描述两个人类男性领袖的行为。通过进入这些灵长类动物学家的实地地点和实验室,Langlitz的最终目的是从文化人类学的角度来理解“文化灵长类动物学家”的反思。虽然Langlitz很清楚他的观察“非常倾向于允许我的研究人员”(第12页),但他通过比较“实地研究与实验室研究”和“欧美研究与日本研究”的背景,更广泛地看待黑猩猩是否有文化的争议。在第12页,我发现自己和灵长类文化界的知名人物一起被提到,我感到有点尴尬。虽然我很荣幸能被归入这些杰出的学者之列,但老实说,这一荣誉更应该属于西田俊田。至少在我看来,西田也应该在文本的其他地方被更多地提及。例如,Langlitz甚至没有将西田称为马哈尔的代表。相反,他反复地连续编排《古道尔的贡贝》和《伊塔尼的马哈尔》(例如,第20-21页,第59页,第106页)。我不否认伊塔尼在马哈尔研究初期所起的重要作用。然而,称马哈勒为“伊塔尼的”,几乎就像是称贡贝为“利基的”,因为它忽视了那些在现场工作的人。正是西田在马哈尔呆了很长一段时间,完成了K和M组黑猩猩的习惯化,随后写了许多有影响力的论文,并与日本、欧洲和美国的灵长类文化学家一起维护了“黑猩猩文化战争:重新思考人性”
