Abstract

We begin to laugh from a very young age, and for a variety of reasons. But did you know that we are not the only living beings on earth who laugh? The great apes (like gorillas, orangutans, chimpanzees, and bonobos) laugh too, although their laughter can sound very different from ours (the laughter of a chimpanzee sounds like panting!).
