tool use

Tool use involves using objects or devices to perform tasks more efficiently or effectively. It enhances our ability to manipulate the environment, solve problems, or accomplish goals that might be difficult with bare hands. For example, a person uses a hammer to drive nails or scissors to cut paper. Many animals, including some primates and birds, also use tools in nature. Recognizing tool use helps us understand problem-solving, innovation, and the development of technology, highlighting an organism's ability to adapt and extend its natural capabilities through external objects.
