I haven't tried this interspecies
chat with Chantek, so I'm not sure if it works. Let me know if you
try it!
A video with a segment on Chantek, Signs of the Apes, Songs of the
Whales, will be shown in class.
This video is also on reserve at the library so you can view it again.
The following chapter about Chantek is in a book on reserve at the library:
H. L. W. Miles (1990). The cognitive foundations for reference in a signing
orangutan. In S. T. Parker & K. R. Gibson (Eds.), "Language"
and intelligence in monkeys and apes: Comparative developmental perspectives.
New York: Cambridge University Press.
The following book is on reserve at the library; it provides more general
information about orangutans (and beautiful photos):
Russon, A. E. (1999). Orangutans: Wizards of the forest. Toronto:
Key Porter Books.
