A team of researchers recently followed groups of chimpanzees through three periods of fruit scarcity in West Africa. For a chimpanzee, every day during a fruit-poor season can be like Black Friday, where all the "shoppers" want the same hot item.

3 Why does everyone freak out during Black Friday when the deals aren't even that good? If you want to be sure to get the new, say, plasma TV, what do you have to do? Camp out in front of the store! Well, that's exactly what the researchers found the chimpanzees to do with the coveted fruits. In fruit-poor seasons, 4 the nomadic chimpanzees set up their campsites within striking distance of the ripe fruits. When the fruits were 5 "_________," or quick to disappear, the female chimpanzees set up their sleeping nests more pointedly in the direction of the fruit than the fruit was plentiful. Moreover, in order to ensure that the fruit supply would not be gobbled by the time the chimps got there, they woke up early, often before sunrise, when the forests were still dark.
