[TD]Gina, a resident of Seville Zoo, chose to solely watch adult entertainment channels when a Freeview television and remote control was placed in her enclosure.
Primatologist Pablo Herreros, writing in Spanish newspaper El Mundo at the weekend, told how he made the discovery some years ago on a tour of the nation's chimpanzee enclosures.
During his research trip, dubbed the 'chimpatour', he conducted surveys on the behaviour of the animals.
'What I could never imagine were the surprises prepared for me by a female of this species called Gina who lived in Seville Zoo,' he said.
Her enclosure, he said, consisted of an outdoor area where she could play and a heated interior zone where she could protect herself from the winter cold and extreme summer heat.
'Due to the intense interior lives that these animals have, you have to enrich their environment to stimulate them physically and psychologically,' he wrote.
'These usually consist of artificial mounds, toys and other inventions that require them to be active and sharpen their wits. It is the equivalent of occupational therapy for humans.'
Chimpanzees and their close evolutionary relatives bonobos are the closest cousins to humans in the animal kingdom.
Bonobos in particular are known for their aggressive sexual behaviour, but no-one could predict how Gina the chimp would respond to a television with access to adult channels.
Professor Herreros said: 'To enliven Gina's nights, officials decided to install a Freeview television, protected behind glass, and gave her a remote control so she could change the channels herself.
'In the early trials, her keepers visited Gina to check that everything was in order and she did not break the new toy.
'The surprise came when they found that within a few days, Gina was not only using the remote control perfectly well, but that she also chose the porn channel for entertainment, as many of us would have done.'
Professor Herreros said that easy access to those kind on images on television was 'a very recent phenomenon in human sexual history'.
He added: 'Although a small study estimated that porn films are only watched for about 12 minutes on average, the truth is that human and non-human primates possess an intense sexual life.
'This is probably the result of an infinite capacity to dream and recreate the situation in the mind, as evidenced by the games, innovations and manipulations that we are capable of in other areas of our lives.'

So, it's in my genes :v:
There's a "spanking the monkey" joke to be made here, isn't there?
[sp]yes yes i know chimpanzees aren't monkeys[/sp]
Only 12 minutes?
so it is true
even females watch porn
"'This is probably the result of an infinite capacity to dream and recreate the situation in the mind, as evidenced by the games, innovations and manipulations that we are capable of in other areas of our lives.'"
in other words we like to bone and imagine boning other people...

This sums up Bonobos pretty well :v:
I wouldn't call 15 minutes addicted though.
I believe all primeapes are capable of understanding porn.
I swear one of the orangutans at the sand diego zoo is an exhibitionist, last time I saw the enclosure a male orang grabbed a female by the wrist, layied back to the side of the glass, then grabbed her by the feet and tried to make her sit on top of him. She didn't have interest so she got out of the hold and walked off, for a few seconds you could see him erect and his reaction was to hide it with his feet then just sat there board out of his mind. The interpretation of what he was thinking is mine but stuff that took place happened.

All of us you mean
No one else finds it hilarious that her name happens to be Gina?

It took me a second to realize they were referring to the TV remote and had a disturbing image that they'd given the monkey a dildo.

if she's in the middle of watching the porno channel it's a distinct possibility she's using the remote as a makeshift..
