As quoted from the site dailymail, Gibbon ape thinking about their own language. Surprisingly enough, this monkey also has a different accent each other.
Usually, Siamang singing to communicate with each other or play games. They also use song to mark their territory or attract mates. Gibbon that has been paired, will sing a duet to strengthen their bond.
Scientists who analyzed the models of song sung by forest primates in Asia China, Laos, Cambodia, and Vietnam. Apparently, they get a different type of song not only for each different species, but also differed according to region they came from. They can be grouped into an accented Siamang north and south.
A group of German scientists have examined 400 primate samples accounted for 92 Gibbon song duets and analyze all of them with 53 acoustic parameters.
The research results are published in the journal BMC Evolutionary Biology, was singing Siamang can reveal not only their regions of origin, but also past their migration
However, Gibbon species originating from northern Vietnam and China have a different accent from her relatives who come from the southern part. While the siamang species originating from a location further north again, to have songs that increasingly are different from their relatives in the south.
Researchers found that the structure of the siamang song is not only a tool that can be relied upon to ensure the kinship, but also to dangle from their geographic location.
"Every Gibbon has her own variables, but, like humans, there is a similarity (pattern tracks) between Siamang which has the same origin," said Van Ngoc Thinh, one research team to Dailymail
