Chimp & See Talk

Anganeta, Alia and Amelia

  • Quia by Quia moderator

    This tree seems like a very popular place, there is another discussion for this fellow: http://talk.chimpandsee.org/#/boards/BCP000000h/discussions/DCP00001h9 I think the chimp there is different from these three, he(?) has a very straight brow.

    ACP0003dwy - juvenile tool user, very pronounced dip in the brow. A younger juvenile hanging off to the side

    ACP0003dwz Adult female, probably the mother of the small one.

    ACP0003dx0 She's taking the tool using juvenile's cracked nuts!

    A young chimp walks around a bit while another hides in the foliage nearby:

    I think this is the youngest of the #RWFemale02 trio! This video is two days after that the original sighting, they might be regular visitors of this spot.

    More videos from this sequence confirm it's the same group.

    ACP0003dq2 The older sibling(?) is here, too.

    ACP0003dpx Youngest on the left, Mom still refuses to look at the camera.. and again snatches food from the older juvenile!

    Hi @DataDroid, this looks like a kid to me! Younger individuals tend to have lighter faces + hands than adults do (although not always!), and are smaller in size than are adults.

    Another helpful hint (but not always a rule) is how intact the ears are! This youngster's ears look perfectly intact! Adults tend to accumulate tears and scars over the years as they get older, although some lucky adults sneak by more or less untouched. πŸ˜ƒ

  • DataDroid by DataDroid moderator

    Ah, thanks. I guess I didn't have enough size cues here to be sure, so I'll make sure to look out for those other cues you mentioned. At what point (approximately) would one consider a chimp to be an adult vs a juvenile?

  • maureenmccarthy by maureenmccarthy scientist, moderator

    Hi @DataDroid -
    Chimpanzee age classifications go roughly as follows:
    0-5 yrs--infant;
    5-10--juvenile;
    10-15ish--subadult;
    15 and older--adult

    So they don't reach adulthood fully until around the age of 13-15ish, but they start to lose the infantile features like the pale face and the little white tuft on their rump slowly during the course of being juveniles and subadults. Hope that helps!

  • DataDroid by DataDroid moderator

    Thanks. For purposes of classification here, should anything below adult be considered "youth" then?

    Possibly the same individual as RW Juvenile. It's the same spot just 20 minutes earlier than the other video.

  • Tykelass by Tykelass

    This is the same scene - one chimp in the foreground and another in the background which is the one that's making most of the noise - using a stone to crack something maybe?

    Same family of 3 again, 2 days later ...I think. Adult takes the juvenile's nuts again

  • MimiA by MimiA scientist, moderator

    @Quia and @DataDroid. I agree I think its a match for these three indivduals, Let us just wait for Giulia to confirm, but in case we are right

    Quia, can you propose a name for the mom?
    Datadroid can you propose a name the infant?

    And I will leave the naming of the juvenile open to everyone, first come first serve. Make sure to check this list since every chimp needs a unique name! http://talk.chimpandsee.org/#/boards/BCP000000i/discussions/DCP00001dp

    Posted

  • DataDroid by DataDroid moderator

    I'd be honored. Does the infant have a known gender?

    Posted

  • MimiA by MimiA scientist, moderator

    Not that I can tell

    Posted

  • Quia by Quia moderator

    It's a girl I think. Such a flattering picture! πŸ˜ƒ ACP0003dq6

    Posted

  • DataDroid by DataDroid moderator

    Then I'd like to name her for my infant daughter Amelia.

    Posted

  • Quia by Quia moderator

    I can follow that theme! Not daughter, but grandmother. πŸ˜ƒ Anganeta

    Posted

  • MimiA by MimiA scientist, moderator

    Giulia, Erin, Maureen, correct me if I am wrong but I think at this age the little females have no swelling, what you see here is the infant"s white butt tuft which both males and females have. But good educated guess! We will keep these names and need one more!

  • DataDroid by DataDroid moderator

    The full sequence from 2013-09-11 seems to span from ACP0003doq to ACP0003dqp inclusive.

    ACP0003da1 could that be the older sibling of the trio? there is some stone beating sound in the back?

  • Giulia_Sirianni by Giulia_Sirianni scientist

    yes, I agree with the match! we finally identified the first chimps, congratulations!! I just posted the familuy in the "known" chimps page.

    I am still waiting for a name for the juvenele!!!

    great job!

  • jokergirl by jokergirl

    If we're going by the theme, then I'd like to nominate Antonia! Or Alia? Pick whichever you like best.

  • aquitanian by aquitanian

    Could http://talk.chimpandsee.org/#/subjects/ACP0002udh be RWJuv02 as well? I really like Alia as name πŸ˜ƒ

  • Giulia_Sirianni by Giulia_Sirianni scientist

    Ok, let's name RWJuv02 Alia!!!

    Currently, RWJuvenile 01 & RWJuvenile 02 are tagged as being part of this family, yet they are still listed separately as prospective individuals in the main id thread. Just want to be sure, are RWJ01 & 02 now known or still unmatched? Thanks!

  • Boleyn by Boleyn moderator

    seems to be a new video of the three because there was no entry in talk so far Anganeta using a tool

  • Astro_Max by Astro_Max

    Red water 06. Seems like a female possibly juvenile, similar in facial colour and general demeanor as Alia. Shot is a little foggy so its hard to make out but "she" does look up at the camera. Thanks.

    I have tagged the videos with the names you have chosen. If anyone finds other video from these 3 chimps, feel free to tag it.

    Thanks you all πŸ˜‰

  • PauDG by PauDG scientist, moderator

    Hi @Boleyn,
    you are right, is a video from Anganeta and Amelia (? I canΒ΄t see very well because is behind the vegetation but is this family).
    Great!

  • PauDG by PauDG scientist, moderator

    hi @parsfan

    yes, is RWJuvenile02 now called Alia, and around her there must be her family, Anganeta (female, adult) and Amelia (infant).
    Great match!

    Posted

  • PauDG by PauDG scientist, moderator

    Hi MingMing and Tykelass,
    yes, this chimp is RWJuvenile02, now called #Alia, and you can hear the noise of other chimpanzee, Anganeta, cracking a nut.
    Good job!

  • PauDG by PauDG scientist, moderator

    this is @DataDroid

  • PauDG by PauDG scientist, moderator

    Nice find @starrypawz,
    this little is Amelia, and the other one probably be Anganeta or Alia, the other two members of this family.

    You can see the whole family in the videos of this serie:

    I think you are right, that definitely looks like Alia to me, and the size is right for Amelia, hard to see her face while she's climbing up in the trees!

    Posted

  • AnLand by AnLand moderator

    I guess, I should move my post to here. Did we see her before? It might be #Alia. But I base it more on prospective age and the tree she is usually hanging around.

    ACP0003d9r
    ACP0003d9z (@tsering suggested it might be #Alia)
    More from the series: ACP0003d9q, ACP0003da0, ACP0003da1 and ACP0003d9y

    ACP0003dym I think #Alia again? SHe is near the camera in the subsequent 3 clips, but not in sight...

  • AnLand by AnLand moderator

    I guess, we still do not have a solution (confirmation or rejection) here. Video came along again. Would be nice to have a say from the science team.

    Is this infant Amelia: ACP0003dau ?
