Speaker 2 (00:11):
So I don't know if I'm saying this this kind
of monkey, right, but white face? Is it capuchin or
capuchin monkeys?

Speaker 3 (00:18):
Whatever?

Speaker 2 (00:19):
These these kind of monkeys, they got white faces. They
greet each other by sticking their fingers up each other's
noses and researching.

Speaker 3 (00:28):
What little monkeys picking each other's nose.

Speaker 2 (00:34):
Researchers believe this unusual behavior strengthen social bonds and build
trust within the group.

Speaker 3 (00:41):
I guess let's try it, you guys.

Speaker 2 (00:43):
I love those videos of the people of the Zoo
with like the monkeys and the I think it's the
the apes specifically, where they'll like lean up against the
glass and then they'll want to see what's in everybody's
bags and they'll just or they want to see the baby,
or they'll do the magic tricks. And they look at
them and they're like what because you know they're very
they're the closest to humans, right, yeah, animal to humans,

(01:04):
so they're like whoa, you know, like they'll be amazed
by the mat and it's like the simple magic trick,
you know, like where they I don't put a ball
under a cup and then they'll just move and then
they're like, you know, they'll put their hands like crazy.

Speaker 3 (01:14):
Like lip gloss. Oh my god.

Speaker 2 (01:16):
Or they want to see the baby or the one
I saw yesterday was they wanted to see and it
just like kept saying, like making the gesture to take
things out of the bag. So they just wanted to
see everything that was in and they just kind of
leaned there and looked at it. It looks amazing. It's
like there's a person inside of there. It can't fully communicate,
but yes, so don't. I mean, we bond here and

(01:36):
we love each other, but like we don't need to
do the nose up, the finger up the nose. Would
you actually stick your finger up his nose?

Speaker 3 (01:43):
Jason's yeah, do it? Really? I would want to wash
my hands first. Oh that's nice so that I don't
get him sick.

Speaker 2 (01:51):
Really, she's sick. If you listen to him talk. I
don't think it's it's she's gonna do it.

Speaker 3 (02:00):
You put it, you put it on the nose, on
the nose, brain, do you have consent?

Speaker 2 (02:06):
Hold on?

Speaker 3 (02:07):
Oh my god? Why does that out? My god? Do
