Here at our private sanctuary, CHIMPS, INC. offers a recuperative and retirement situation for chimpanzees to live out their lives in dignity. Many chimpanzees in the United States devote their formative years (13 to 14 years) to biomedical research, the entertainment field, or parks/zoos. Upon reaching adolescence, chimpanzees make the life threatening mistake of growing up. Traditionally, euthanasia was the next step, meaning that retirement centers and sanctuaries have not been necessary. Now that we are more aware of the 98.4% genetic compatibility of the chimpanzees to humans, it is no longer morally acceptable to murder our sibling species.

WHAT IS THE CHIMPANZEE? The Chimpanzee is the closest relative to us, human beings. Even though we share over many of the same chromasones humans evolved as the dominent species and not chimps. Of all the great apes, the chimpanzee is probably the most familiar to most people. They are the most social of the apes, living in groups of at least a dozen individuals.

M. de Waal (Originally published in the March 1995 issue of SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN , pp. 82-88) At a juncture in history during which women are seeking equality with men, science arrives with a belated gift to the feminist movement. Male-biased evolutionary scenarios-- Man the Hunter, Man the Toolmaker and so on--are being challenged by the discovery that females play a central, perhaps even dominant, role in the social life of one of our nearest relatives. In the past few years many strands of knowledge have come together concerning a relatively unknown ape with an unorthodox repertoire of behavior: the bonobo. The bonobo is one of the last large mammals to be fo Read More Go to Site Chimpanzee Votes:0 Chimpanzee Scientific Name: Pan troglodytes . Genus name comes from Greek Mythology, named for "god of pastures," forest and flocks. Belonging to the Ape and Pongidae family.

Chimpanzees are typically 1 to 1.7 m tall and weigh 40 to 50 kg. They have light-coloured, black, or blotchy skin, and large protruding ears. Partly because of their intelligence, these animals have been used extensively for scientific research. In 1961, the chimp Ham orbited the earth in a rocket, preceding human astronauts. The demand for live chimpanzees for zoos and research has led to a significant decline in their population. Chimpanzees eat plants, ants, termites, and occasionally meat. They live and travel in small groups, communicating and expressing their moods with a variety of hoots, grunts, roars, and screams. They apparently delight in their own sounds.

We are now the longest running chimpanzee rehabilitation project in Africa.

Two forms of chimpanzee, or chimp, exist: the common chimpanzee and the pygmy chimpanzee. They are active by day, spending their time in or near trees. They are omnivores, eating leaves, fruit, ants, and even small mammals and can live up to 60 years. Chimpanzees form loosely organised bands of 2 to 80 individuals on fairly large home ranges, where the animals remain for years. Chimps communicate through vocalisations, facial expressions, posture, touch, and movement. The chimpanzees show great intelligence in problem-solving and the use of simple tools. Chimps climb well but spend most of their time on the ground, where they generally walk on all fours, even t Read More Go to Site Chimpanzees are our closest living relatives Votes:0 The Most Powerful Chimpanzee of the Netherlands Between 1977 and 1984 Nikkie (the chimpanzee you see on the right) was the most powerful chimpanzee in the Netherlands. During that time, Nikkie was the alpha male of the famous Arnhem Zoo chimpanzee colony , the largest semi-captive chimpanzee group in the world. The book " The most powerful chimpanzee of the Netherlands " gives a personal insight into life and death inside this chimpanzee group, based on intensive observations. Aggression, reconciliation, grooming, baby and child-care, teasing, sexual bargaining and separating interventions are recurrent themes. The book contains some exciting observations . The comparison with aggressive behaviour and play led to the hypothesis that quasi-aggressive behaviour is a form of social Read More Go to Site City of Chattanooga Votes:0 Home | About Chattanooga | Jobs | Mayor's Office | City Council | Pay Online | GIS Map | Contact Us Government City Services Other Government Services Pay Online New Residents Community Organizations Doing Construction in the City Doing Business with the City Starting A New Business in the City Chattanooga Business Portal Chamber of Commerce Enterprise Center Businesses Actively Recruiting Employees with Disabilities Education, Arts, & Culture Getting Around Recreation Golf Performance Centers Outdoor Chattanooga Zoo Tourism 21st Century Waterfront Departments City Council City Court City Judges Education, Arts, & Culture Finance Fire Department Human Services Internal Audit Mayor's Office Neighborhood Serv Parks & Recreation Personnel Police Department Public Works Multicultural Affairs C Read More Go to Site Critter of the Day Votes:0 #globalNavWrapper { height: 24px; } #globalNavWrapper #secNav { top: 24px; } #globalNavWrapper .hr { /* submenu dividers */ /* omitted in non-IE */ } Care2 member?

Chimpanzees — especially those who have learned a human language — help us intellectually to bridge the imagined chasm. This crossing gives us a new respect not only for chimpanzees but for all the other amazing animals with whom we, the human animal, share this planet." Jane Goodall Why Research on Chimpanzees Must Come to an End Chimpanzees are humankind’s closest living cousins, sharing more than 98 percent of our genetic code. They are highly intelligent and social beings who have language and distinct cultures. They use tools, teach their young, plan for the future and make moral choices.

The acquisition of language in primates may shed light on the development of language in early humans. In this sense, research of primate language and primate tool use offer similar insight into our early ancestors. Many people believe that language is a unique capacity of humans.

One chimp spontaneously utilized the pole in order to obtain something from a high shelf. From the example of this chimp's use of the pole as a tool, the other chimps learned the use of the poles for escaping. The group learning of these chimpanzees illustrates the importance of imitation in learning and tool use.
