Yeah I don’t know I’m old enough to remember that lady whose face got eaten off by her friend’s chimp on Oprah and that poo poo scarred me

To be fair, that’s what happens when you try to raise a chimp as a human, give it Xanax and alcohol, and then try to take that chimp’s favorite toy.

Chimps are still terrifying and all and I wouldn’t want to be alone with an adult one, but lots of bad decisions led up to that moment.

and primates are deliberate when they want to be violent. they'll bite your fingers off, gouge at your eyes, tear at your crotch. unlike a dog which just bites whatever it can get its teeth on. chimps are just bricks of wiry muscle, even ones that were overweight like travis was.

For good non-sex pest, non-facetearing ape content, here are baby orangutans being taught to fear snakes to prepare for their eventual release into the wild:

So this kind of led me down a Wikipedia path from a gorilla with a nipple fetish to finding out chimpanzees are just loving psychotic and will gently caress up anything including gorillas. Look up Frodo the chimp he literally ate a human kid

I looked into it and that frodo is loving crazy. Just a sociopath ultra brute

Frodo fathered a child with his own mother, assaulted Gary Larson, and ate a human baby. Eventually his clan abandoned him en masse while he slept and he was left to wander the forest until he died of a scrotal infection.

Hmm, I guess what I'm trying to say is that you'd subconsciously expect an animal that has learned to speak would have transcended its perverse animal nature in some ways and the idea that it hasn't done so at all is simultaneously humorous and creepy, nawmean?

Wait, the Far Side guy got assaulted by a chimp?

I've not ever really liked chimps, frankly. Baboons, gorillas and others seem cool, if still really dangerous, but chimps have often struck me as very close to humans in sheer vitriol and I'm not sure I care for it.

They try to downplay that frodo snatched an infant from a woman to devour by pointing out that he and other dominant chimps routinely delighted in hunting and eating baby monkeys of their enemies.

Here’s a story from Birute Galdikas, a primatologist who studied orangutans in Indonesia:

”The Los Angeles Times” posted:

When Galdikas arrived at Tanjung Puting, native Indonesians told her that orangutans occasionally raped human females as well. She did not believe it--until one came into her camp and raped an Indonesian cook. Today, she warns women visitors who are menstruating to carry a club and not to venture among male orangutans in the camp.
