Bonobos are like humans because they can tell when someone else doesn't know something. This special ability is called a theory of mind. It helps them understand that others have different thoughts and beliefs. In a study, bonobos were tested to see if they could help a person find a treat hidden under a cup. When the person didn't know where the treat was, the bonobos would point to help. But when the person did know, the bonobos did not point. This shows that bonobos can recognize when someone else lacks information. This ability is important for communication and cooperation. It helps them work together and understand each other. Bonobos are not so different from humans after all. Further research will explore why bonobos communicate and if they do it to help others understand. The study shows that bonobos are smart and can understand the thoughts of others. They are not so different from us, and they can help us learn more about how our minds work.
