Cadell, this is really wonderful work. It's a fascinating topic that is well presented verbally and artistically. My hats off to your animator, I really enjoy what she's brought to life.

I know that a lot of work has gone in to this and it is evident by the quality.

Now to my question:

When people from different cultures move to another place with a different culture they inevitably have to conform to their new culture but they also bring their own cultural footprint with them. Does this occur with chimpanzee's as well? Are there cases of chimpanzee's being introduced to new "groups" of chimps and introducing to them new behaviors?

Fascinating stuff!
