#watching this monkey peel of the stringy bits#drop them on the baby’s head#meticulously remove them#and clean off the stump#then wolf down that banana#is just really great#like a fussy little person
seeing how familiar monkeys’ mannerisms are makes me desperately wish I’d been around when there were other species of humans
[a video shows an adult monkey with a young one sitting with her. She is meticulously opening and eating a banana, removing the strings as she does so, which then fall onto the fidgeting baby. She picks them of the baby too.
The image shows a tweet from mar @nasacertified who says: “they don’t like the stringy bits on bananas either!!!! I don’t know what I’m going to do with this info yet but it makes me happy to know.” end descriptions]
