I don’t know how much of a difference it would make but, the chimp looks to be left handed. If chimp brains work anything like human brains then he would probably be right brained and better suited than left brained people for a game like this. I wonder how he did against the few right brained people that were there? Again might not make a difference but I’m curious. How many of the students were right handed?

If so, the it makes sense. Plus, we know the chimps aren't attending weekend frat mixers, smoking pot, and/or sleep depriving to study for tests or complete assignments. :D first thing that popped into my mind was : are these chimps trained to respond to things to get food- as an initial way of establishing communicaiton (like with most animal training)?
