Chimpanzees have a better memory than humans



Scientists at the Kyoto university made to test the memory of chimpanzees. The tests are simple, when you touch the circle, number from 1 to 9 are shown and you need to press on the number in the correct order. The numbers were put behind the square as soon a number 1 is touched. This test was done very accurately by both chimps and human, but it took chimps less time to do it.

The second test was harder (as it turned out for humans) Once you push the circle, the numbers appeared for 0.7 seconds. The accuracy of both chimps and humans were about 80%. But when the time changed to 0.4 and 0.2 seconds the chimps accuracy remained the same while the humans accuracy decreased 40%

The videos show how they did the test.
