Its Monday! Did you yawn yourself to work or school this morning?
Macaques, just like us, yawn when they're sleepy. Yawning in macaques does have a function: in tense situations, they yawn to show their teeth. In the wild, adult male macaques yawn in a yawning contest, almost, to show off their canines.
It is a familiar feeling: that need to suddenly yawn as soon as someone else in the room does it. Scientists know that humans and other great apes can "catch" yawns from each other but now th...

Macaques use facial expressions to ‘talk’ to each other and to humans. For the next few weeks, the Macaque Team will bring you through a guide to the different Macaque facial expressions. Feel free to ask us anything and remember to spread the crucial knowledge you gain for the sake of the macaques and everyone!
Let’s start with ‘happy’ ma...
