- MAISIE MESSAGE: While we love sharing the fun and amazing milestones baby chimp Maisie has been achieving, it's important to remember that Maisie is being cared for by trained professionals and chimpanzees are wild animals that do not make good pets.

She is REALLY just so adorable right now. But obviously, her life as an infant does not last forever.
They sure look awesome as grown-ups too, but yeah, don't get near them if you value your life.
@Magno Avatar In the bible it says God made a man out of the dust from the Earth, just like every other living being, so it would make sense we have physical similarities to other animals. Also we have 70% genetic similarity to horse fly, are we 70% horse fly then? no we are not. What makes us different is our morality that connects our being to God. Chimps will kill their own kind with no remorse. Humans have a moral compass preventing them dominating, or else we would have eradicated apes and other endangered species instead of trying to conserve them. Chimps or gorillas or orangutans wouldn't care if other species died, we do. It's because God made us gardeners of his planet, and as gardeners, we feel a moral compass to protect his creation.
@Magno Avatar If you are an atheist you cannot mention to me any moral arguments since atheists do not have morality in their worldview. In an atheistic worldview, nothing in existence has any value beyond material, if you mention morality you are borrowing from religion since in an atheistic world there is no right and wrong. Also, yes we have killed many of our fellow men, that's the curse of the fall when Adam disobeyed god. But the difference is that we fundamentally know killing and war is wrong whereas chimps or gorrilas have no problem or remorse or knowledge of it being wrong. They don't feel guilt when they go and kill a human, yet all of humanity was angered when Harambe died. That's the difference, had a gorrila killed a human (which they have) they would move on and forget in less than a day. Also you mentioned the Bible has inconsistencies but failed to mention any, that's like me stating Atheism is wrong with no evidence.
Oh, and here's my evidence for atheism being wrong: According to the laws of physics, energy cannot be created or destroyed in this physical realm. So tell me how the universe, with its insane amount of energy, came to exist? It couldn't of popped out of nowhere, that wouldn't make sense, would it?
@@daemonzap1481 So the universe cant pop out of nowhere but god can? Also, yes, we are 70% horse fly
@Magno Avatar : I'm sure that you meant 8 "BILLION."
Cute as babies when they grow up they will rip your arms off.
or your friend's face, it has happened and the victim qualified for a face transplant.
@@tomm4073 once they reach maturity they are very dangerous . Even more than the much larger lowland gorilla.
@@chrisb3989 Gorillas are the strongest apes and are very dangerous at mating times but very pacific the rest of the year. Adult Chimpanzees in other hand are always dangerous and aggresive and for no reason at all.
@ Try it.
They are strong as hell even as babies...people forget they are animals lol
We must never forget these are wild animals and should be treated with the utmost caution and respect.... well said and well done....
Beautifully explained, thank you.
A good public message. Thank you 🙏🏾
To even think that a chimpansee baby could make a friendly pet/adopted child is ludicrous. The same goes for lions, bears, tigers and so on.
Agreed ! Dogs are good enough for anybody.
@@carolnorton2551 Well, dogs are in the top 10 animals that kill the most humans per year after mosquitoes, humans (homicide) and snakes.
@@mitkoogrozev I was considering what makes a good pet or companion, not choosing a method of suicide.
I mean if we hadn't domesticated wolves you'd probably say the same thing about them
@@xxamightystormxx we didn’t domesticate wolves, we domesticated a seperate species from wolves
its basically like trying to keep a super strength, angry and not as smart human as a pet, not gonna work.
So disturbing to hear wild pet trade is a serious situation in the United States, pathetic and humiliating makes me so sad.Maisie is precious what a blessing a blessing
To anyone who ever thinks about wanting a Chimpanzee as a pet, look up the story of Travis the Chimp.
Warning in advance, it's VERY graphic!
Face got ripped
they also had that chimp on medication. it snapped and chewed the face of her friend,
@Jj Ff how to be alpha?
Omg never! They all scare me!
She's cutest thing I ever ever seen
What about your own kids?
@@clovers1962 you think someone like that has children? You must be equally as pathetic
@Magno Avatar Then why arent monkeys giving birth to humans today?
Bless you and all of your animals !!! PLEASE show us videos of Maisie's progress with the other chimps. BRAVA !!!
I'm glad to see this change in caregivers perspective and view of an ape. I know, we all learn and the first human instinct is to take care of the baby as only human can, But they get more trauma and pain from that.
We are hairless apes called Homo Sapiens. Civilized? Not even close. Lol
God bless her she's absolutely beautiful glad she's going to be with her own kind and be happy bless them all thank you for the work you all do 🐒🐒🐒❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🇬🇪
Thank you. Too many people think they can influence a chimpanzee or an orangutan to not be aggressive. That's like asking a tiger to eat tofu. It doesn't work.
So special & precious. Thank you for doing what you do. She is beautiful.❤
I ALWAYS say basically the same thing to humans when they ask me "Why aliens haven't made direct contact with random humans?" My reply is: "Humans are unpredictable, many times stronger and don't make good pets."
Wonderful way to start my day .... Maisie is ADORABLE !!!!! :) Zoe NS Canada
I love these videos from.Maryland zoo seems like they do so much for animal comservation
its a really cool zoo as well, thats one thing Baltimore does well is our zoo and aquarium are awesome
She adorable pretty little chimpanzee. That one chimpanzee is eating celery. Precious as can be. These caregivers are more pro than us. They know what they have to do. Stop criticizing these wonderful people
Какое нежное жирненькое мясцо на барбекю!!!👍👍🤣🤣
Thanks for making a difference in the lives of a interesting and wonderful animal that we share this world with. She is so cute BUT I know she is a wild animal and should never be anything else.
Really great idea for a video. It's such a joy to watch videos of Maisie getting all that love and attention, but it's important for viewers to remember that this really isn't an ideal situation for her. Even w/ the amazing care the zoo affords her, she will inevitably have to overcome some challenges she'd never face had she been naturally raised.
Apes are amazingly resilient and adaptable. Maisie was not taken from her life in the wild, she was born and will live in captivity, so she won't have to overcome something she's never known. The main issue for any intelligent animal, apes specifically, is to keep their mind occupied and enriched so she has the best possible life, which I'm sure she will. She's not a pet, an entertainer or medical test subject so she won't have that trauma to heal from, she'll just have a different life than chimps in the wild. Judging by the love and care she's getting from knowledgeable staff, that different life will probably be a good one.
She is so cute❤
Maisie is a beautiful chimpanzee. Love you guys. 🥰♥️💞
She is adorable take good care of her. I love when baby chimps laugh. How cute.
Yes 👍good job ! Jane Goodall has alot of books to read on this .
She is absolutely beautiful. You are doing a great job in taking care of her and her rehabilitation. Xx
@Doctor Obispo je ne comprends pas!
There is certainly an appeal to baby primates and monkeys. They are adorable, they act like human children and are goofy. People like smaller monkey's because they think that, smaller = cuter and easier to handle. Unlike Chimps that grow rather massive.
But monkey's aren't made for the life of a pet. Yes, technically you could see a Sanctuary where you interact with Orangutans for example as a 'pet', because the caretakers need to look after the animals that can't be put into the wild. But they are not pets. Even a smaller monkey can tear flesh with their bite and in their adolesence, they turn violent because they are trying to assert their dominance and the Pecking order. And will continue to do so.
Also, being cooped up isn't healthy. And most baby monkey's are taken from the cold dead grip of their mothers or their mothers are in cages, constantly being bred to make baby monkey's. It's why you see Baby Monkey's holding their heads, curled up, or screaming all the time. Because for the first 2 years, a Monkey or Primate is meant to stay with it's mother, and psychologically it destroys the animal.
Thank you for doing this educational service.
This is cute overload. Thanks for the informative approach. I learned something from the clip.
I really like the approach "treat chimp like a chimp would do instead like a human". It is much more natural and little chimp will have easier time to adapt if she gets to the group of other monkeys.
the perfect Christmas present!
So informative. Thank you.
I agree. Thank you for your work 👏🏽
Thanks for this educational video!
Beautiful!
She is unbelievably cute!!
Awww she's so cute.
I love how the people saying this are always the ones who basically have them as pets.
People these videos are to educate the public not criticize the zoo caretakers who give their all..to these animals..please keep the comments polite and beneficial...
@Magno Avatar isn't it 98 percent or so for chimpanzees and humans? I rather enjoy being a primate--we have opposable thumbs for starters ;)
@Magno Avatar No they share DNA strands, not actual DNA. Humans are one of the 5 great apes, chimpanzees, bonobos, orangutans and gorillas are the other 4 great apes. But in reality we share more actual DNA with rats than chimpanzees. When you hear things like 'they share 98% of DNA', it does not mean two species are 98% alike, it means that 98% of the DNA stands are alike. Shared genes is different than working DNA, cause the genes are not just the working DNA strands, it is the actual genes that make up the DNA, and we share 99% with rats and 96% with chimpanzees. We also share 80% with potatoes and 50% with bananas, so a high figure is not always what it seems.
@Magno Avatar Everything that moves freely and eats is an animal. Stop trying to sound intelligent. Body has zero to do with being an animal. Literally every specie that is able to move on its own, eat food and has a nervous system is classified as an animal. That includes insects and fish.
@Magno Avatar what body isn't an animal??? 🤨
i love her. i love her. i loves her
I remember being bitten quite badly by a baby chimp
I would have gotten a hammer and beaten the thing to death. I hate chimps.
Hello. How much does it cost to purchase this monkey??? I need one to protect my backyard, my coyote has been very lazy and he does not scare away intruders.
wow...you must have such a pathetic life or did you actually think you were being funny?
@@raquelf.1962 "You must have such a pathetic life" says the one getting mad over an inoffensive joke 😂😂
cute chimp. I think that 5-8 times stronger thing really is subjective to what human, as a large human can bench-press 250 lbs so that would make a large adult chimp benching 1 ton. Although 1 former circus ape named Suzette managed to pull 1,260 lbs of weight in a test.
Great Message!
Masie is just too cute.
She is so cute 😍🥰
Maisie is sooo cute!
NO wild animal belongs as a pet. I cringe when I see the selfishness of some people taking away their freedom to keeps as "pets". If you love...set it free. The U.S. imports more wildlife animals into this country as "pets" than any other country...shame on us. It is destroying the ecosystem and putting animals into close extinction.
Very similar sentiments to those at Monkey World in the UK.
If I had a pet chimpanzee I would train it to smoke cigarettes.
Why not cigars? - and maybe even teach it to chew tobacco........ Easy everyone, just kidding.
Another good reason not to have one as a pet.
If you think the US is bad for the Chimp trade. You should visit the middle or Far East.
What I've seen there (with chimps) was sad. Monkeys too, but (if they were indigenous and 'common place') I just accepted that as a cultural thing (as it once was elsewhere).
But, the Chimp trade was very sad. There was no understanding/empathy for the animal (with the 'owners' I saw). And, I only saw them up to a certain age ..never really saw many 'older' chimps. I can guess what happens to them, after they get older/unruly
Thanks for the work you do and the message you are sending out.
I have had monkeys in the past for pets. I thought they would be fun to have. I found out that they DO NOT MAKE GOOD PETS !!!!!!!! I was sorry I had them. They are dirty, sometimes vicious, and destructive. I will NEVER have another monkey EVER AGAIN !!!!
They act like human babies. Precious
So sweet and precious
Absolutely not !!!
@@ranchopantera6954 why are baby monkeys no precious??
They are the closest relative to us genetically.... obviously there are bound to be problems
Primeape, the Angry Pokemon. It becomes wildly furious if it even senses someone looking at it. It chases anyone that meets its glare. It will beat up anyone who makes it mad, even if it has to chase them until the end of the world.
Magnifique = Maisie 😍
I’m loving the Jack Skellington tattoo on that one keeper’s right arm. Hee!
From the vid i can see that your troop are very happy animals....
Remember Charla Nash!
Veruca Salt : Dad, I *want* this chimpanzee !
(How chimp adoptions work)
More like someone barely above the poverty line gets a payout when their partner dies or house burns down and they buy a chimp for $50k to treat like the kid and be miserable.
@@jessicawaters8899 I'm not an expert but I dont think so
Why does some stupid dumb people try these magnificent apes to keep as pet. They belong to the forest let them live free there not in a human made concrete house.
Thank you great info about chimpz
Which female are you going to try and put Her with?
My parents had a baby chimp in our private Zoo in St. Joseph, Missouri in the 1950's- 60's. They are lots of fun as youngsters but when they get older they can become extremely dangerous. When she was about 8 years old she attacked me and I had to shoot her a blank pistol to get free of her. I have a video of her on UA-cam, "Flinchpaugh Vicky Lynn.
Thank you for your informed contribution to this topic. A young couple I knew in the 70's "adopted" a chimpanzee, Joey. We didn't realize how cruel that was at the time; it seemed exotic and fun. Foolish kids.
useful speech thanks, mom.
I’m sure she’s super excited to live her life in a box.
Correct. That's why it's best to stick with baby tigers, lions and bears for pets.
You are right. Monkeys are not pets.
Search for Travis the chimpanzee.
Neither are big cats.
But tell that to Carol and Joe Exotic
Isn't that prick in prison?? Joe exotic.
@@tats5880 yeah yup
Y’all clearly haven’t heard of Joe Rogan
I think something like owning a parrot should require a license and they should be bought in pairs apes and monkeys are a whole different story.
All I would want to do if I were the zoom keeper is just kiss their faces and ears. They are just absolutely precious. It's so sad that anyone would do anything to hurt them. It makes me sad. But gosh they are so cute when they are babies.
I just got a chimp from the congo, he's really nice and i treat him like a human. He's very good with the baby. What's wrong with that?
I wouldn’t mind a multi generational project where we teach them as much as we can and help them develop mental capacities
I would love to play with one so bad lol, but not to take them home, great video, very explanatory
Now that one will still your heart.
😍😍😍
So is it 5× stronger then humans or 1.5× stronger bc i keep seeing conflicting accounts in regards to their strength compared to humans 🤷🏻♂️
Надо же такой красотульчик родился.
Ну да, прямо офигеть не встать! А мамашка так вовсе красавишна!
Baby chimps are sooooo adorable, but when they are adults they can be dangerous. I read an article a few years back where this lady had a full grown chimp, she had him since he was a baby. One day her friend came over, for some reason her chimp felt threatened or was jealous. Or he thought she was in danger. He attacked his owners friend and almost ripped her face off. The police came, the chimp went back to his room and got into his bed, the police put him down.. poor thing. He should of NOT been there, he should have been in the wild..not being treated like a human....
Schöne Baby monkey
They like to rip faces and hands off. Why would you want one?
No animals make good pets. Those who love animals truly create sanctuaries for them wherein they can live naturally but also enjoy the benefit of some temporary help when nature gets rough.
They taste great
They telling us that they don't make good pets BUT they show us the most cutest things ever!!! It's too tempting! 😂
We need to see them as animals not like us more we can respect them as God made them
Grown up they're like 3-6 year olds with above human agility and upper body strength as well as powerful jaws.
Good luck trying to make them take a timeout if they throw a tantrum. Other than that they're nice folks in small controlled doses. And a wall between you.
Learnt this stuff in grade 1. Why don’t you just do what they do in Borneo and pair her up with a chimp with her similar characteristics. Way better then her connecting with a human 24/7. She’d learn it all naturally, straight from the source? Give her a friend. And talk more about why she ended up there and how many years will it be until she goes back into the wild! By wild, do you mean WILD-WILD or wild at the zoo! Zoo wild? 🤓🤣And talk more about the life they live IN the wild! 🤷🏽♀️
Yes they make great exhibits though right.
It must've been hard for Pan Kun. After he was used to entertain the media, with a bulldog named James, he was sent to a sanctuary because of his age. He lived, and trained with his human, then when he outlived his usefulness to him, the trainer got rid of him. Imagine training a chimp to be able to live the way other chimps really live in the wild, when the chimp had lived among humans. I even thought Bubbles, Michael Jackson's, was gone by now, but he is still alive at a private sanctuary.
Where is Pan now?
I don't understand, why people vote this video down...
Are females and castrated males as aggressive as intact males?
No, females and males without the hormone testosterone are not as aggressive. Same with humans, although humans are much more aggressive than chimps . . . humans steal, kill, rape, torture, enslave & destroy the environment for all life forms.
Its like no one ever heard of Coco
Sounds like, unlike dogs and bonobos, chimpanzee can't fit into a human hierarchy.
Bonobos ?? Do u have sex everyday and are u dominated by women ?
@@crkcrk702 yes 😎
@@oldbirbman 😶
@Big Guy yes, and lions eat meat because they are disturbed by men lol
@Big Guy wow I didn’t know that. But I read in a book from From de Wall that he did observations of bonobos in the wild, and that women bonobos were using sex to gain food advantages and then didn’t need it anymore after some years, to dominate.
And here there is a footage, I don’t know if they are disturbed or whatever but they do often sex lol ua-cam.com/video/m6ryxAEVLUQ/v-deo.html
Very effective mask
i dont know, i am not a vet or specialist on chimps. but in 0:34 I see a little boy :D
molto bene
If they are being cared for and loved I believe it's okay...at least with the smaller ones
What accent does this woman have? It sounds like a mix of American and Irish.
I was thinking Australian at first but now I'm not sure...
