In this article, we summarized the recent progress in the research of visual cognition in chimpanzees from the perspective of comparative cognitive science. Topics are (1) attentional mechanism in chimpanzee's visual cognition, and (2) perceptual basis of social cognition. In a series of experiments, we found the similar results in chimpanzees to humans, while there are some differences between the two species. We also reviewed the studies of these topics in humans, and discussed the possibility of the introduction of the comparative cognitive perspective to the human research. If we want to try to answer the "why" questions to the mechanism of human visual cognition, comparative cognitive perspective should be necessary.
