How Chimps Changed Life! One day I (Chuck the chimp) wa lked to my friends house. When I got there MY friend Chip (the chimp) had over Gary (the gorilla), Perry (the penguin), and Callie (the crocodile). They decided to go to the park, I didn't want to tell my friends that I was scared of the park because of the new weeping angels across the street from the park. They are supposed to come alive at night the only people who saw them, saw them on the ground. It was about 9:00pm when we got there so I was pretty freaked out. I looked over there 1,2,3,4,5,... Oh my god their gone, where are they! "Guys, climb up the tree guys" I yelled. "The angels are gone, the weeping angels are gone!" I yelled again. My friends climbed up the tree and sat at the third branch from the ground. But I was too late, I was grabbed by an angel. She was taking me to the church where she lived. My only chance was to grab a tall branch and try to jump from tree to tree. When I passed the tree, I grabbed the tree, turned around, and before I noticed I was already to the tree with my friends in it. Now, from that day on all the monkeys and chimps swung not walked around.

Interview Welcome to a new episode of "The truth corner". Today we have Mr.Chimpanzee and I'm your host Miss Mikayla. Are you ready to start "The truth corner"? I sure am. Let's talk about your habatat. 1. Miss Mikayla: Where do you live? Mr.Chimpanzee: I live in southern Africa. 2. Miss Mikayla: Is it true that Common Chimpanzees in Senegal sharpen with their teeth? Mr.Chimpanzee: Yes, sometimes we use them to get Senegal Bush babies out of small holes in trees. 3. Miss Mikayla: How long do you live in the wild? Chimpanzee: About 40 years. 4. Miss Mikayla: How many different signs of sigh language do chimps know? Mr.Chimpanzee: About 800 different signs. 5. Miss Mikayla: I've heard that chimps aren't brilliant, is that true? Mr. Chimpanzee: Wrong, us chimps are very smart!!! 6. Miss Mikayla: Are you members of the gorillas, humans , and orangutan s family? Mr. Chimpanzee: Yes, they are my cousins. 7. Miss Mikayla: What ones are your favorite? Mr. Chimpanzee: The gorilla and the orangutan  are my favorite. 8. Miss Mikayla: Why not humans? Mr. Chimpanzee: Right now they are taking our land so we have 2-3 families in one tree. 9. Miss Mikayla: Wow, how many families are in your tree? Mr. Chimpanzee: Five families, we're a very kind family! 10. Miss Mikayla: Is it hard feeding all of them? Mr. Chimpanzee: No, we always have extra food hidden in the tree somewhere we go shopping every week so we have a lot of food ready.(crying,more crying) 11 . Miss Mikayla: Well that's today's "The truth corner"! Bye, see you later.

1.living primarily in west, and central Africa. 2.Chimpanzees are members of the gorillas, humans , and orangutans family 3.A full grown adult male chimpanzee can weigh from 35-70 kilograms 4.stand 0.9-1.2 <span class="wiki_link_ext">metres 5.while females usually weigh 26-50 kg 6.stand 0.66-1 m 7.Chimpanzees rarely live past the age of 40 in the wild 8.have been known to reach the age of more than 60 in captivity. 9.Anamitocal differences between the Common Chimpanzee and the Bonobo are slight 10.sexual and social behaviour there are marked differences. 11.Common Chimpanzees have an <span class="wiki_link_ext">omnivorous <span class="wiki_link_ext">diet , 12.a troop <span class="wiki_link_ext">hunting culture based on beta males led by an <span class="wiki_link_ext">alpha male <span class="wiki_link_ext"> , 13.Bonobos,on the other hand, have a mostly <span class="wiki_link_ext">frugivorous diet 14.and an <span class="wiki_link_ext">egalitarian, <span class="wiki_link_ext">nonviolent , <span class="wiki_link_ext">matriarchal , sexually receptive behaviour. 15.The exposed skin of the face, hands and highly dscomplex social relationships. 16.and feet varies from pink to very dark in both species, 17.but is generally lighter in younger individuals, darkening as matothurity is reached. 18.Bonobos have proportionately longer upper limbs and tend to walk upright more often than the Common Chimpanzee. <span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)">19.Different groups of Chimpanzees also have different cultural behaviour with preferences for types of tools. 20.Africans have had with chimpanzees for millennial. 21.Chimpanzees have been kept as <span class="wiki_link_ext">domesticated 22.especially in <span class="wiki_link_ext">Congo is the local name for the animal and translates loosely as "mock man" or possibly just "ape". 23.The colloquialism "//chimp//" was most likely coined some time in the late 1870s 24.When chimpanzees first began arriving on the European continent, European scientists noted the inaccuracy of some ancient descriptions, which often reported that chimpanzees had horns and hooves 25.Scientists who examined these rare specimens were baffled , 26.and described these first chimpanzees as "<span class="wiki_link_ext">pygmies " 27.and noted the animals' distinct similarities to humans. 28.The next two decades would see a number of the creatures imported into Europe, mainly acquired by various zoological gardens as entertainment for visitors. 29.as in much of <span class="wiki_link_ext">life science, leading eventually to numerous studies of the animals in the wild and captivity. <span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)">30.The observers of chimpanzees at the time were mainly interested in <span class="wiki_link_ext">behaviour <span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)"> as it related to that of humans. 31.with much attention being focused whether on or not the animals had traits that could be considered 'good'; 32.the intelligence of chimpanzees was often significantly exaggerated. 33.At one point there was even a scheme drawn up to <span class="wiki_link_ext">domesticate chimpanzees in order to have them perform various menial tasks (i.e. factory work) <span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)">34.By the end of the 1800s chimpanzees remained very much a mystery to humans, with very little factual scientific information available. 35.In July of that year, <span class="wiki_link_ext">Jane Goodall set out to <span class="wiki_link_ext">Tanzania 's <span class="wiki_link_ext">Gombe forest to live among the chimpanzees. 36.This typically involved basic, practical tests on laboratory chimpanzees, which required a fairly high intellectual capacity (such as how to solve the problem of acquiring an out-of-reach banana). 37.observations of chimpanzees in the wild which added tremendously to the scientific understanding of chimpanzees and their behaviour. 38.There have been many attacks in Uganda by chimpanzees against human children; the results are sometimes fatal for the children. 39.Some of these attacks are presumed to be due to chimpanzees being intoxicated (from alcohol obtained from rural brewing operations) and mistaking human children 40. The dangers of careless human interactions with chimpanzees are only aggravated by the fact that many chimpanzees perceive humans as potential rivals, <span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)">41.and by the fact that the average chimpanzee has over 5 times the upper-body strength of a human male. 42.As a result virtually any angered chimpanzee can easily overpower and potentially kill even a fully grown man, as shown by the attack and near death of former <span class="wiki_link_ext">NASCAR driver <span class="wiki_link_ext">Saint James Davis. 43.Chimpanzees make tools and use them to acquire foods and for social displays 44.they have sophisticated hunting strategies requiring cooperation, influence and rank 45.they are status conscious, manipulative and capable of deception; 46.they can learn to use symbols and understand aspects of human language including some relational syntax, concepts of number and numerical sequence. 47.Young chimpanzees have outperformed human college students in tasks requiring remembering numbers. 48.Modern chimpanzees use tools, and recent research indicates that chimpanzee stone tool use dates to at least 4300 years ago. 49.A recent study revealed the use of such advanced tools as spears, which <span class="wiki_link_ext">Common Chimpanzees in <span class="wiki_link_ext">Senegal sharpen with their teeth, being used to spear <span class="wiki_link_ext">Senegal Bushbabies out of small holes in trees. 50.Prior to the discovery of tool use in chimps, it was believed that humans were the only <span class="wiki_link_ext">species to make and use tools, but several other <span class="wiki_link_ext">tool-using species are now known. 51.Recent studies have shown that chimpanzees engage in apparently <span class="wiki_link_ext">altruistic behaviour. 52.Scientists have long been fascinated with the studies of language, as it was potentially the most uniquely human cognitive ability. 53.To test the hypothesis of the human-uniqueness of language, scientists have attempted to teach several species of <span class="wiki_link_ext">great apes language. 54.One early attempt was performed by Allen and Beatrice Gardner in the 1960s, in which they spent 51 months attempting to teach a chimpanzee, named <span class="wiki_link_ext">Washoe, <span class="wiki_link_ext">American Sign Language. 55.Washoe reportedly learned 151 signs in those 51 months. 56.Over a longer period of time, Washoe reportedly learned over 800 signs. 57.Numerous other studies including one involving a chimpanzee named <span class="wiki_link_ext">Nim Chimpsky have been conducted since with varying levels of success. 58.There is ongoing debate among some scientists, notably <span class="wiki_link_ext">Noam Chomsky and <span class="wiki_link_ext">David Premack, about the great apes' ability to learn language. 59.The differences between chimpanzee and human laughter may be the result of adaptations that have evolved to enable human speech. 60.Self-awareness of one's situation such as the monkey-mirror experiments below, or the ability to identify with another's predicament, are prerequisites for laughter, so animals may be laughing in the same way that we do. 61.Chimpanzees, <span class="wiki_link_ext">gorillas, and <span class="wiki_link_ext">orangutans show laughter-like vocalizations in response to physical contact, such as wrestling, play chasing, or <span class="wiki_link_ext">tickling. 62.This is documented in wild and captive chimpanzees. 63.Chimpanzee laughter is not readily recognizable to humans as such, because it is generated by alternating inhalations and exhalations that sound more like breathing and panting. 66.One study analysed and recorded sounds made by human babies and bonobos (also known as pygmy chimpanzees) when tickled. 65.bonobo’s laugh was a higher frequency, the laugh followed a pattern similar to that of human babies and included similar facial expressions. 66.Humans and chimpanzees share similar ticklish areas of the body, such as the armpits and belly. 67.The enjoyment of tickling in chimpanzees does not diminish with age.<span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)"> <span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)">68.C <span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)">ommon Chimpanzees are found in the tropical forests and wet savannas of Western and Central Africa. <span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)"> <span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)"> 69.They used to inhabit most of this region, but their habitat has been dramatically reduced in recent years. <span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)"> 70.This is because the muscles of chimpanzees and other primates are far more effective than those of humans 71.Their bodies are covered by a coarse dark brown hair, except for the face, fingers, toes, palms of the hands and soles of the feet. 72.Both their thumbs and their big toes are opposable, allowing a precision grip. 73.Their gestation period is 8 months 74.Infants are weaned when they are about 3 years old, but usually maintain a close relationship with their mother for several more years; they reach puberty at the age of 8-10, and their lifespan in captivity is about 50 years. 75.There are also instances of organized hunting. 76.in some cases, such as the killing of leopard cubs, this seems to be primarily a protective effort. 77.However, Common Chimpanzees sometimes band together and hunt Western Red Colobus monkeys (//Piliocolobus badius//) for their meat. 8.Isolated cases of cannibalism have been documented. 79.Chimpanzees have also been known on rare occasions to attack and eat human infants. 80.Common Chimpanzees live in communities that typically range from 20 to more than 150 members, 81.spend most of their time traveling in small parties of just a few individuals. 82.They are both arboreal and terrestrial, spending equal time in the trees and on the ground. 83.Their habitual gait is quadrupedal, using the soles of their feet and resting on their knuckles, but they can walk upright for short distances. 84.The core of the societies are males who roam around, protecting members of the group as well as engaging in the search for food. 85.Among males, there is generally a dominance hierarchy. 86.However, this unusual fission-fusion social structure. 87.This is mainly due to chimpanzees having a high level of individual autonomy within the fission-fusion society. <span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)"> 88.As a result, individual chimpanzees often forage for food alone, or in smaller groups. 89.As stated, these smaller groups also emerge in a variety of types, for a variety of purposes. 90.An individual may encounter certain individuals quite frequently, but have run-ins with others almost never or only in large-scale gatherings. 91.Due to the varying frequency at which chimpanzees associate, the structure of their societies is highly complicated. 92.and Common Chimpanzee DNA is very similar 93.after the completion of the Human genome project, a Common Chimpanzee Genome Project was initiate. 94.Typical human and chimp homologs of proteins differ in only an average of two amino acid. 95.About 30% of all human proteins are identical in sequence to the corresponding chimp protein 96.Results from the human and chimp genome analyses should help in understanding the genetic basis of some human diseases. 97.eat fruit, leaves, flowers, seeds, insects, and small animal prey. 98.Feeding is usually an individual activity but they can work co-operatively to hunt larger prey such as monkeys, pigs, and antelope. 99.Female chimpanzees are usually 13-15 years old before they have their first off-spring 100.Usually a single baby is born after an eight-month pregnancy, though twins have been documented in the wild. 101.Infants are weaned when they are about 3 years old but usually maintain a close relationship with their mother for several more years. 102.Chimpanzees reach sexual maturity at around 11-13 years of age.<span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)"> 103.They can recognise themselves in a mirror and have the ability to learn sign language. 104.They may use leaves to clean the body and twigs to gather insects.
