Skilled Tool-user featured in BBC Africa Series Emma was orphaned when her mother Ester disappeared in 1999. She was a young juvenile at the time and we feared that she would not survive the loss of her mother. Emma beat the odds and proved us wrong by growing up to a healthy young adolescent. She developed into one of the most proficient honey gathering chimpanzees of the Moto community. Perhaps she learned honey pounding techniques from Dorothy who was a frequent companion of Emma's and avid tool user. See Emma in action going after honey in the BBC series Africa.

Not clear if fish were filmed here - but seems like the backdrop for the scene even if the actual footage was shot in a controlled environment?
