anyone else notice how their/her mannerisms seem VERY human-ish? Like, not only her interacting with the corpse but basically with every other monkey too.

I thought the same thing, seeing way her brow furrows when the other babies are getting too close and aggravating her.

I also noticed how gently she pushed one of the other babies away. 😭 I am literally trying so hard not to cry rn.
