DownloadFor centuries, people have asked what makes us different from animals.
There have been a bunch of different hypotheses for which human trait is the key ….
tool use, self-awareness, culture, or our awareness of death, to name a few.

Lots of species communicate.

And for a long time, scientists have wondered where our special,
complex language skills came from.
Recent research on one of our relatives may shed some light on that question.
Because there’s evidence that orangutans may use language as well,
and it’s teaching us something about our own.

Now one thing that you will have picked up on is that orangutans….
Aren’t our closest relatives.
