[@rhymenoceros3303]

Basically the play is how they develop social ques and recognize how to appropriately act and treat other members of the species. It's honestly the same thing we do in humans and similarly if a human grows up without human interaction they often end up aggressive towards others due to fear and not understanding social ques. The only difference really is how incredibly strong apes are compared to humans which can make the play look rough in comparison.

[@12801270able]

Humans are great apes, too. And furthermore, it's a myth that "apes" are incredibly strong compared to humans, barring gorillas. Chimpanzees are only stronger pound for pound. When you adjust it for absolute strength, adult male chimpanzees are as strong as adult human men, and the former does calisthenics all the time.

[@ganonzero1]

​@@12801270able Go look at the aftermath of a chimpanzee attack on a human and see if that opinion about their strength is still valid.

[@adrenjones9301]

@@12801270able No. Their muscles are denser, its literally why they cant swim. Humans also sacrificed raw strength for finer muscle control. Its why apes look so clumsy when manipulating objects.

[@nebulous9280]

Hell, even if I'M isolated from people for a while (no way to leave the house, parents and other family members out of town, etc.) I tend to get a bit more aggressive and feral. Human interaction is crucial for human development, and it remains important for the rest of our lives.

Or a father and a father, or a single father, or a single mother, or a mother and a mother. As far as they get meaningful social interactions. Y'all will take just any excuse to justify your bigotry, won't you?

[@EB-jl5te]

@0Anubi0 bigotry is an UNREASONABLE attachment to a belief. While my gay friends and single mother/ father friends are amazing parents, statistics show that children are more likely to be successful in a father and mother household. Facts dont care about your feelings. Sounds like you are the bigot, or maybe you don't understand terminology.

[@EB-jl5te]

@0Anubi0 statistically a father/mother household has a higher chance of success for children. That's not to say they can't be successful as many of my gay friends and single friend parents have proven. Not bigotry when statistics back it

They need to interact with gorillas the same age, just like us

[@Wolfengemoen]

Not the same age, wrong, having large groups of equal aged mammals interacting with each other doesn't happen naturally in the wild, similar ages a bit, but generally the age groups very broadly, mother, father, aunts, uncles, grandparents, cousins. The only time you get that are in schools of fish, birds, or bugs, things with a relatively short lifespan that procreates all at the same time and or place to ensure a chances of finding a mate, oh sea turtles too but it's temporary, they leave, they also have a longer life though.

Zoo and wildlife sanctuary protective breeding programs are basically their last and best chance at avoiding extinction. Not someday,but now.
