  1. Bonnie (orangutan)

    Unreferenced date December 2008 Bonnie born about 1978 is a female orangutan living at the Smithsonian National Zoological Park in Washington, D.C. She began spontaneously whistling, mimicking an animal caretaker making the sound. The importance is that whistling is a sound that is in a human s but not an orangutan s repertoire. While some lower primates have been shown to make non standard sounds for their species, it has always been the result of intense training, whereas Bonnie just picked up the new sound mechanism. Another interesting aspect is that she seems to whistle just because she likes the sound as opposed to producing this behavior in response to a potential food reward. Bonnie s whistling was documented in Primates journal Primates by Dr. Serge Wich and his co authors Great Ape Trust scientists Dr. Karyl Swartz and Dr. Rob Shumaker Madeleine E. Hardus and Adriano R. Lameira, doctoral candidates at the Utrecht University in Netherlands The Netherlands assigned to the Ketambe Research Center in Sumatra , where Wich is research co manager and Erin Stromberg, an animal caretaker at the National Zoo.

After being confiscated by authorities, he was taken with a female, Dayang, to England in 1967 to the Bristol Zoo. ref name ILFS O ref rp 298 Experiment Aim and Setup The aim of the experiment was to teach an ape subject, through imitative learning, to use a stone to hammer a flake from a flint and use this flake as a tool to open a box. The experiment was divided into two stages where the subject was given demonstrations and then given the opportunity to do the activity him herself. Stage I s aim was tool use , to get an ape to cut a cord to open a box, using a pre made flake. Stage II s aim was tool making , to get an ape to make his her own flakes and open the box with them. The demonstration and attempts were done with a sheet aluminum box. A mesh window made the food visible. The box had a lid secured by a cord inside the box, with the cord accessible via a slot. ref name ILFS O ref rp 298 Timeline The experiment started in 1971. The experimental sessions were conducted in an indoor part of the ape s cage, initially with both Abang and Dayang present.
