Wrestling lessons from the ancestors

Games are an integral part of primate life. It is the same reason which makes sports pages a must in the better primate's newspapers. Studies have shown that animals that lead a social life, including primates use games as a way to teach the young survival tactics and other lessons needed in the life.

Below is a photo series of two young bonnet macaques (Macaca radiata diluta) indulging in wrestling games. Taken from the Agroha temple compound , Hissar in the Indian state of Haryana.
