Ashley Judd explores the thrilling stories behind important scientific discoveries in a new 12-episode series based on the book "Discovering Us: 50 Great Discoveries in Human Origins."
This installment of Discovering Us tells the story of an unusual group of chimpanzees that live on the grassy plains of Fongoli, Senegal where temperatures reach over 110 degrees. Water is scarce, and wildfires sweep through every year - burning the leaves from the trees and baking the soil. These chimpanzees have adapted to their environment in surprising ways that can shed light on the evolution of our own species.
