and that they took more risks is also important she said. In the wild chimpanzees tend to live in areas where food is seasonal and hard to find
and more willing to take risks for a good payoff than are their bonobo cousins.
For example bonobos who tried hardest to switch their choice after an unwanted outcome in the food bowl experiment were also the least likely to take risks in the first place.
That finding is very similar to the observation that people who most regret gambling losses take fewer risks Rosati said.
