'Chimpanzees begging and dancing for food, Bamako zoo, Mali, July 2010'

'There are three chimpanzees in Bamako zoo, in Mali. Wild chimpanzees can still be found in the southwestern part of Mali, but are hunted for food on most of their present range. In one sequence, a chimpanzee is dancing to please human visitors and obtain food and beverage. It is not known if this behavior was acquired through training by humans or by individual insight. Filmed by C. Abegg.  Another video elsewhere, a bit shaky, show interesting begging behaviors for different individual chimpanzees, but none is approaching a dance:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4s0jt8L5V_w&feature=endscreen&NR=1  This one in Ghana show another chimp dancing while begging food in a zoo: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IaQj4BET5hs  In a US zoo, a female chimpanzee has a rhythmic behavior while begging which could be a dance:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DryN3bml_Ec'
