Whether it's weaving a safe place to rest and reflect, blowing a fine net
of bubbles to trap fish, or leaping boldly into a new situation, the animals
featured (including the orangutan, humpback whale, and
gibbon) can teach us a lot about problem solving.
As well as lacking the bony elbow ridge that we share with
gibbons, P. cataloniae also has a bony ear canal — a
feature only seen before in a different, extinct group
of primates.
