Just like humans, chimpanzees also prefer beds that are stable and comfortable, a new study by researchers from the University of Nevada and Indiana University revealed.

The researchers studied the qualities of seven varieties of tree species that chimpanzees prefer for their nests at Uganda's Toro-Semliki Wildlife Reserve. They also studied leaf surface area as well as shapes of the nests.

A new study has revealed something very interesting about chimpanzees. Chimps give as much attention to their beds as humans. What all they like to flop on is stable, firm, but a compliant bed. Researchers at the University of Nevada and Indiana University found that chimps prefer the Ugandan Ironwood than other types for its firm and stable properties.
