During ape follows, we also observed the gorilla group immediately change their travel direction to head toward chimpanzee vocalizations originating from the canopy of Ficus with ripe figs > Affiliative interactions included play with individuals of both species engaged in chasing, wrestling, play biting, and play hitting. > We also observed gesturing between species to initiate social interactions. Intriguingly, chimpanzees exhibited chest-beating which is a behavior characteristic of gorillas. > In contrast to predictions of competition between species, nearly all interspecific associations were tolerant or affiliative. Aggression was observed between gorillas and chimpanzees, but did not escalate to killing as reported from Loango, Gabon (Southern et al., 2021).
