@tpuschel.bsky.social@tpuschel.bsky.socialWe discussed our paper on why some chimp moms carry their dead infants, sometimes for months in @theconversation.com theconversation.com/why-do-some-... @oxford-anthro.bsky.social
@sthughscollege.bsky.socialReposted by @tpuschel.bsky.socialResearch by Prof Püschel Tutorial Fellow in Human Sciences finds that strong bond between chimpanzee mothers and their offspring drives them to continue carrying their dead infant and the cause of infant’s death is most consistent explanation for how long it's carried bit.ly/4hFTsod #research
@ox.ac.ukReposted by @tpuschel.bsky.socialChimpanzee and bonobo mothers have been observed carrying their dead infants for months.
New research from @oxford-anthro.bsky.social suggests that the strength of the mother-infant bond and how the infant died may help explain why ⬇️

New study by doctoral candidate Reece Hammond & @tpuschel.bsky.social finds that strong maternal bonds and cause death provides the most consistent explanation.

@tpuschel.bsky.social@tpuschel.bsky.socialVery proud of my PhD student Reece Hammond for publishing his 1st paper🎉
Our study asks why chimpanzee and bonobo mothers sometimes continue carrying their dead infants and what this behaviour might tell us about maternal bonds and responses to death doi.org/10.1098/rsbl...
