The experiences we face early in life may leave their marks on our health in ways that echo across decades—and even across the entire body. A new study, published in the journal Science, examined a unique group of free-living rhesus macaques that have been followed their entire lives to document their experiences.
During its juvenile period we prodded rhesus monkey 089 with sharp sticks and observed a subsequent aversion in 089 to sharp sticks in adulthood which is atypical of unprodded individuals.

So they poked the monkey with a sharp stick and their finding was, the monkey feared sharp sticks later?
Yes its science, the same lab did a follow-up study where they threw rocks at puppies.
