Monkeys experience joy of giving, too, study finds
Tests in capuchin monkeys showed the animals consistently chose to share food with another monkey if given the option, suggesting they are capable of empathy, the team at the Yerkes Research Center at Emory University in Atlanta found.
“They seem to care for the welfare of those they know,” Frans de Waal, director of the Living Links Center at Yerkes, said in a statement.
Capuchin monkeys are capable of sharing and are deemed to get joy from the experience.
Apparently capuchin monkeys have higher evolved concerns for their family than the presumptuous presidential candidate has for his half brother.
