OMG u guys! 
I'm like totally stoked about this new study on bonobos! 
They've basically taught a bonobo named Kanzi to play make-believe, just like human kids do 
. I mean, we already knew they're super smart and all, but this is like, whoa! 
The fact that they can distinguish between real and imaginary objects is mind-blowing 
.
This study makes me wonder, when did humans start doing make-believe? Was it always a thing or was it something our ancestors picked up along the way?
And what's even crazier is that this ability might've been present in our common ancestor with bonobos like 6-9 million years ago! 
That's just wild, fam 
. We need to keep exploring the neural mechanisms behind imaginative thinking in humans and non-humans, that's some next-level science

Their ability to distinguish between real and imaginary objects is crazy impressive
