Not surprised, but fascinating #discovery.
"Are humans the only apes capable of flexibly orchestrating #isochrony and #synchrony in their behaviour? To date, the joint presence of, and connection between, isochrony and synchrony in other mammals has never been found. Here we show the first #evidence for isochrony, #rhythmic flexibility mediated by co-singing, and synchrony in the #vocalizations of an #ape, the lar #gibbon."
