A group of adorable Orangutans at Melbourne Zoo have proved they’re legit video game fanatics, with researchers using Xbox Ones to engage the primates in an interactive enrichment program.
And as if that wasn’t cute enough, they’re also set to be the world’s first Orangutan-identified experimental noise band, ABC’s Catalyst reported, with researchers developing an audio-based game where music adjusts according to the primate’s movements. Meaning they’ll be able to make their own songs.
A groundbreaking study will see orangutans graduate from video gamers to music composers.
