Message 1: Chimp gesture references

Subject: Chimp gesture references




I am looking for recent references to chimp (both common and bonobo) 
gesture. Please note that I do not need references to studies about 
the linguistic chimps (Washoe, Kanzi etc.). I am looking for studies 
of naturally occurring gesture, either in zoo or wild populations 
that have not been exposed to human interaction.

thanks
Fay

Would anyone happen to know whether there exists a discussion group 
on the Net specifically addressing English Etymology?
Many thanks,
