Paragraph 1
Teenagers are well known for doing
things. It seems that once a child becomes a
, they take a lot more risks. Some of these are
and lead to injury, or worse. A new study of young chimpanzees may explain risky
in children. The study is from researchers at the University of Michigan in the USA. They studied over 100
chimpanzees in a national park in Uganda. The chimps ranged in
from 2 to 65 years. The researchers looked at how the animals swung through
. The youngest chimps seemed to do more dangerous
, like letting go of branches and letting themselves fall. Older chimps took fewer
and made sure they gripped
firmly.
