A study examined monkeys given a choice between a bare wire structure with a milk bottle or a soft, suede-covered structure with a milk bottle as surrogate mothers. The monkeys chose the soft, suede-covered structure. In a separate experiment where the suede-covered structure did NOT have the milk bottle, the monkeys preferred the bare wire structure that still had the milk bottle.
Monkeys prefer a milk bottle over softness of texture when choosing a fake surrogate mother.
