    I constantly make jokes about penguins being feathered little deviants with no shame, and I could never dislike any animal because they're just doing animal things, but I severely side-eye chimps, especially when I'm around them. If any could get close to me disliking them, it would be chimps. They're a little too human for this animal industry worker.

      They're not human, that's the problem. People need to stop humanizing them. Being extremely similar to us doesn't mean they can control themselves anywhere near the extent we can. Even the most loved and well trained dog will try to eat you if it's starving. That's why we take measures to ensure they never begin to starve around us.

      So are Orcas, Dolphins, and Elephants they’re about as smart as us Humans, so when they do harm or inflict torment on us or other life forms, you can bet that the reasons are the same ones we Humans have for doing that stuff to other Humans other people or plain ole simple “I CAN’T TAKE THIS SHIT ANYMORE” situations in the case of Enslaved Orca and Elephant Persons by Sea World, Circuses, and Thomas Edisons respectively.

      Also, Humanizing Penguins doesn’t work as they aren't very smart. There are, however, animals that are a peer in intelligible ability to us, but they are sadly very few but they do indeed possess Sapient Mental Characteristics.

    To add on with the Travis story, his owner was so relaxed with everything he did including his medication.
    It wasn't ever tested if Xanex helps chimps at all, but it apparently does.
    HOWEVER, what she did was give him MORE than what is usually given. So instead of 1-2 pills she gave him like 3-4.
    If you look up what happens when you overdose on Xanex it basically explains what happened to Travis.

    There is a reason most movies, they don't use adult chimps. It's why the face most people think of when they see a Chimp is actually a young chimp, not an adult chimp. Adult Chimps are ugly.... very very ugly. I was surprised the first time I saw what an adult chimp looks like. I was so used to the cute chimps you see in movies.

    HatGuy actually has it wrong. The couple that owned Travis adopted him after their own child had grown up and moved out of the home. That child-now-adult (can't remember if son or daughter) wasn't that big in Travis' life before s/he died, I believe, in an accident. What HatGuy is probably confusing is that Jerome, the husband of Sandra and "father" to Travis, died after a long illness. The death of Jerome deeply affected Travis and there was no longer a strong male figure in the house. By the time the tragedy happened with Charla, Travis' was still upset over the loss of Jerome. The household kind of fell apart and everything changed. With each year, Sandra was less and less able to control Travis. He was overweight and much stronger than any normal human. So Sandra kept him in the house almost all the time, so he lived a pretty confined lifestyle. This was completely different from when Sandra and Jerome took Travis anywhere. So suddenly going from visiting restaurants, regular car rides, visiting all kinds of people, so playing and receiving plenty of stimulation, to suddenly being stuck at home watching tv and receiving no exercise or socialization. It had to be frustrating. Even dogs lash out in negative behaviors when confined and given no outlet for their energy and boredom, and chimps are considerably more intelligent. Then add on the fact he was becoming a teenager and hormones were kicking in. So mood swings were common and he'd displayed aggressive behaviors towards others. Another reason why Sandra kept him at home.
    Sandra could really only control Travis through food and other temptations, but that was becoming more and more ineffective. Travis was starting to understand he was stronger and didn't have to listen. Food and toys weren't enough. So Sandra began giving him the Xanax in the hopes of pacifying him. However, she was overdosing him. This became the perfect storm for disaster.
    Sadder yet, in the years following Jerome's death and before the tragic event, Sandra had considered and nearly took Travis to a chimp rescue. She had even arranged it and was suppose to drive him there, but changed her mind. Because _she_ needed Travis, rather than doing what was best for Travis. So all of this could have been avoided.
    There is also a similar story to Travis and Charla. It happened to St. James Davis and his wife Donna. They owned a chimp named Moe, but as he was also becoming a teenager he grew more aggressive and the couple was forced to surrender him to a sanctuary. However, they were welcomed to visit him. On one visit to Moe to celebrate his birthday with a cake, they were in a separate cage with him, apart from the other chimps. However, two other chimps escaped their enclosure and made their way over to the Davis'. The 2 new chimps attacked and both St James and Donna were injured, but St. James defended his wife and thus took the worst of it, getting torn apart much like Charla Nash. He survived, too.
    There's also a story about how a couple dozen chimps escaped the Tacugama Chimpanzee Sanctuary in Sierra Leone. Among them the hyper aggressive and 6ft tall alpha male, Bruno. They targeted some tourists, lunged their car, then attacked the people inside. One of the tourist fought back and actually sent Bruno retreating, but the chimps stalked them as the injured tourists raced to safety.
    Chimps are scary.

    The James Franco planet of the apes movies doesn't have a boy that goes off to college. James' father has dementia and gets into an argument with the neighbor and the ape attacks the neighbor, gets removed from the house and sent to a research laboratory with lots of other apes.

    amazing video!, one fun fact that you guys might not know, babies 4 to 6 months have enough grip strength to support their own weight and hold on for a good amount of time. this might be an ancestral feature we got from our monkey and chimp friends since the Mother of a monkey, chimp, ape or whatever monkey had to swing around trees constantly and there would always be that chance of it flying in the air and getting hurt. its very interesting!

      I remember seeing a series on Animal Planet (or Discovery?) that used speculative evolution to see the kinds of animals that would be here after millions of years. It was called "The Future is Wild" I think. Squid/octopus eventually moved onto land and filled the roles of primates.
