Sentences like this one should really help lure young people into careers in science:

"Researchers tickled 22 young apes and three humans and acoustically analysed the laughing sounds that resulted."

There is some accompanying footage showing a researcher tickling a gorilla. Which you gotta admit, looks good on a resume.

I like the part where the gorilla presents his foot, but I’m not sure how I feel about tickling through the bars. I’d prefer an unchained gorilla tickling video. Please get started on this immediately, thank you.
