Contextual variation in chimpanzee pant hoots and its implications for referential communication
Article Abstract:
The results of acoustic analysis of 201 pant hoot series produced by seven adult male wild chimpanzee, Pan troglodytes schwienfurthii living in Budongo Forest, Uganda was reported. It was found that pant hoots were produced with higher probability at abundant food sources and they were more likely to contain a let-down phase when produced in specific behavioural contexts, such as travelling and upon arrival at food source.
