Garner presents a groundbreaking inquiry into primate communication. Garner meticulously examines the vocalizations and social interactions of monkeys, proposing that their sounds may represent a rudimentary form of speech. This pioneering work challenges preconceived notions about animal intelligence and communication, providing a foundation for future studies in ethology. Ideal for students, researchers, and animal behavior enthusiasts, this document invites readers to explore the intricate world of non-human communication. Discover how Garner's observations contribute to our understanding of language and cognition beyond humanity, making it a vital resource for anyone interested in the evolution of communication.
