Chimpanzees keep throwing rocks at same trees for a decade, scientists probe why

In an intriguing study, scientists are examining the unusual habit of chimpanzees who consistently throw stones at designated trees. This behaviour, predominantly seen in adult males accompanied by their loud vocalisations, might indicate a method of communication or territorial assertion. The sustained use of these locations hints at a learned tradition being handed down over generations, shedding light on both primate culture and possible connections to human evolution.
