Learning over an extended childhood has been fundamental to survival during human evolutionary history.
Researchers show how Sumatran orangutans use their 8 years of dependency to master a broad diet, necessary for independent survival. They find that infants have individual tendencies to engage in social and individual learning, which together determine diet profile breadth acquired by independence.
The finding offers insights into the evolutionary roots of the complex learning mechanisms that characterize humans.

The Thirty Meter Telescope (TMT) has turned down Spain's €1 billion offer to build the observatory on the island of La Palma, according to a statement from the Astrophysics Institute of the Canaries.
More than a decade ago, the U.S.-led TMT project tried to start construction at its preferred site, Hawaii's Mauna Kea, but opposition from Native Hawaiians who hold the mountain sacred stalled the project.
With the rejection of La Palma, the TMT's longtime backup site, the project is running out of options.

In 2017, scientists began to hear reports of a dolphin doing something unusual off the east coast of Australia.
While foraging for food, the animal—named Bubbles by locals—wouldn't eat any of the fish he was pursuing. Instead, he would single out one, chase it until it threw up, then eat the vomit.
The surprising behavior, known as kleptoparasitism, marks one of the few well-documented examples of a cetacean stealing food.
