Guilt to zoo visitors – More and more great apes are addicted to mobile phones

Date:

Gorillas, chimpanzees and orangutans are genetically extremely similar to us – so it’s no wonder that much of their behavior is similar to ours. However, problems arise with digitization: the first primates are already suffering from media addiction. Zoo visitors showing them cell phone videos are to blame.

One speaks of media addiction “when people interact too much with certain consumer media, spend too much time on them and increasingly neglect real social contacts and daily life”, according to the definition according to the Ministry of Health. But did you think that this disease also affects peopleapes can meet? Just such cases have occurred recently in zoos in North America.
