Copycat Monkeys

A study was done including 21 macaques. That were tested 5 times on sticking out their tounge, opening the mouth, smacking the lips, opening a hand, and spinning a face sized colored disk. At 3 days old 13 out of 16 macaques smacked their lips and stuck out their tounge. They didn't copy any other behavior.At 7 days 4 of the monkeys were still smacking their lips.
After 14 days none of them did any imitating.
