Frans de Waal, who found the origins of morality in apes, dies at 75
Mar 20 2024
Frans de Waal, who used his study of the inner lives of animals to build a powerful case that apes think, feel, strategize, pass down culture and act on moral sentiments — and that humans are not quite as special as many like to think — died on Thursday at his home in Stone Mountain, Ga. He was 75.
The cause was stomach cancer, his wife, Catherine Marin, said.
