Article Abstract:

Chimpanzee group behaviour is constantly changing, with stronger individuals taking the chances to improve their standing within the group. Chimpanzees seem to be involved in social processes similar to human politics. They use the same strategies and behaviours found in human politicians. US Former President Richard Nixon's behaviour on learning he would lose his position can be also found in chimpanzees, who face a similar situation. Some politicians have consulted books on chimpanzees to try to understand, more clearly, how social interaction between humans works.
