Recordist Reference Number: N-Moeza-16. Individual(s) with Sound/call type: Miff screams, Moeza screams (last one alone). Observation of Context: In camp are: Hugo, Humphrey, Sherry, Winkle, Miff, Moeza , Fifi and Freud. Moeza walks in between Miff and Winkle who are grooming while she is playing with a kind of broom which is the male flower of a palm tree. Moeza approaches Humphrey. Humphrey is self grooming. Humphrey pushes Moeza away (Playing or not?). Moeza inspects Winkle’s bottom, Moeza walks around Winkle, then she passes between Winkle and Miff who are still grooming, then around Winkle again. This repeats itself several times while she pulls this “broom” behind her. Suddenly there is general excitement, all chimpanzees vocalize and disperse in all direction. Humphrey displays with hair out, slaps, jumps onto, stamps on Miff, who screams and rolls down slope. Also Moeza screams. Nova & Skosha, Pallas &N Plato appear to have entered camp from the east. Humphrey leaves Miff and Moeza behind, Moeza gives another two screams. Miff sits down another 2 m. farther. Moeza stays under the tree alone. Original Tape Name: Demo Tape.
