Chimp & See Talk

Alexis and Abile?

  • AnLand by AnLand moderator

    If it is not too late, I would like to say that I have some doubt about the assignment of these chimps in ACP00027zw as Alexis and Abile. It's a longer sequence and I have it for quite some time on my watch list. My main reason is that this infant here is still quite small and "covers" barely half its mom's back. Abile is already a bigger infant and covers most of Alexis back and can look over her shoulders. Compare e.g. here in ACP00026kj just a month later.

    I also think that this female here is a bit more robust and has something whitish at her muzzle. I did not see this in Alexis. Last but not least, her back is a bit grayish, while Alexis is very dark.

    Absolutely! this infant is smaller. You are right. And the female´s back is certainly lighter than Alexis´ .These are the clips to be edited, please tell me if you have found more...THANKS!!

    I removed my tags and added #needCID in the videos you listed above. Will check back later whether we got everything.
