My pre-cup o joe mind saw this headline as

"Monkeys complete math problem"

My heart leapt! I knew monkeys were smart and humans, well, not so much lately. We can all use some uplifting news right about now!

Question is, which problem did they solve...was it the Hodge conjecture or Riemann Hypothesis or something entirely different?

Lab owner and 3 of the monkeys in question:

Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.
