    🎬 Behind the Scenes & Extra Footage: • HOW I Taught a Monkey ...
    🙊 Bonobos are GREAT APES not monkeys!
    We used "monkey" in the title to reach a wider audience, however Kanzi is a Bonobo -- a species of great ape closely related to chimpanzees and humans!

    Thank you to the entire Ape Initiative team for making this project possible.
    Ape Initiative is the only research facility in the world dedicated to the study and conservation of bonobos. It is a federally-recognized non-profit 501(c)(3) and is accredited by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums as a Certified Related Facility. Filming within Ape Initiative was done with professional supervision at all times.
    Bonobos are very endangered in the wild, with only around 15,000 left - which is in large part due to the pet trade. In this video, you see Kanzi engaging in human activities as part of his daily enrichment, but Kanzi is by no means a pet at Ape Initiative.
    ⚠️ It is important to remember that bonobos and all other primates are NOT pets.
    Minecraft (and any other touchscreen game) is one of many enrichment activities that Kanzi can choose to participate in to have fun and make his day more interesting. The door is always open, so he can choose when to start and stop playing.

      That's not really accurate. After years of observing Bonobo's and Chimpanzees, Male Bonobo's are several times as likely to get into fights as Male Chimpanzees.
      Male Chimpanzees wake up chill. Male Bonobos wake up looking for a fight.

    Back in 2019 I got to visit Kanzi along with other Iowa State University students. I brought him some pine needles because I heard he liked them and I told him about it. He got excited then used his lexigram to tell me to get him orange juice. I told him I couldn't so he then used his lexigram as well as pointing behind me to give me directions on where to get the orange juice. He understood I could bring him stuff but didn't quite understand that I was not allowed to bring him orange juice. He then kept touching the lexigram for "chase" and patting himself then pointing to me, so we played "chase". We would stand on opposite sides then run and tackle the glass in the middle. He got really hyped about it. It was super fun. Love my boi Kanzi

It would be groundbreaking, and would probably be the quickest and easiest fundraising that they’ve ever done. They desperately NEED to do this and take advantage of the opportunity and that has just presented itself right now while they already have the attention of millions of people.

      The only issue with that would be the ape leaving the game to do his own thing. And it wouldn't be very humane if they were to make him sit there playing for an hour or so. Maybe if they transitioned between him playing doing ape things and playing the game it'd work but who knows.

    If you approach the idea of teaching Kanzi how to attack mobs, what might be an interesting way to do so is by having the mobs in the way of his treats. I think it is important that the way to approach mobs is not through punishment, but through the suspension of reward. For example, punishing Kanzi for dying would cause unnecessary stress and frustration, but if Kanzi instead sees it as an obstacle to get to his treat, he may be less frustrated. This might be able to be done in two ways: one, the mobs are merely there with barrier blocks, and Kanzi must kill the mob to proceed; two, you use a mob like a zombie who, if Kanzi gets to close, attacks him. There would be no punishment, only the prevention of him accessing treats. Take in mind I am not a scientist or anything like that, but it just seemed like an interesting idea.

    You should teach Kanzi how to use a joystick for movement. Kanzi seems to understand the shape and form of the environment but is limited in his range of movement. Now that he understands the game you could teach him a joystick starting with forward and then adding lateral and backwards movement

      Sorry to destroy your dream but Kanzi dont "understand the game". He is not even close to understand minecraft.
      All whats in his brain while we see him "playing minecraft" is:
      Move, break, peanut.
      Move, break, grape.
      Move, break, apple.
      He absolutly doesnt understand what he really has to do in minecraft.
      Similar to:
      Stack 3 boxes, climb them up, get banana.
      Solve an easy task, push a button, get banana.
      Apes did things like this the last 20(?!?) years...its nothing new or special.
      They just modified minecraft so that it works according to the same scheme.
      So this video only shows the same ape training as always ...just the "2023" Version 🙊🤷🏼

    This is almost like these videos where the voice actors from Team Fortress 2 play their respective characters. Seriously, as gamers, they're not better than Kanzi. They're just as confused initially, but then slowly get the hang of the basics.
    He's literally on par with them.
    It would be super interesting to do a cross-analysis of non-human apes and humans from older generations.
