Oh they DID get his testicles. Well then, I think a nomination for a Darwin Award is appropriate.

Their great strength is why people who have them as pets generally get rid of them by the time the chimps are about 6 or so.

That's why they call them animals.

Moe instigated this. He had a history of finger biting.
Probably told the others , look guys there are a couple of chumps (not to be confused with chimps) coming to celebrate my birthday and I want them severely dealt with. I came out of the wilds and they got my birthday wrong and two they got me in this cage. I demand justice.

[Bon mots]

Idiots. Birthday parties for chimps? How stupid can you get?

With cake no less.

I can hear the Daddy chimp now... "CAKE? YOU BROUGHT CAKE FOR HIM BUT NOT ME???? I ought to rip your %^&## off... and..."

"He saw what was happening and had one kind of weapon with him and then got another he felt would be more substantial and shot them," Martarano said. "He pretty much saved a life."
Was this sentence constructed in a remedial composition class?

As has been said before, it's the males that are the problem, and usually only with male humans. They will rip your reproductive organs off, as they did with this numbnuts who brought a birthday cake to a dangerous wild beast.

For a clothed man to lose his testicles, the chimp had to know what he was doing. Then he proceeded to rip, bite or chew off body parts. Wonder if he liked the cake?

Moe was not involved in Thursday's attack,

Obviously, a contract hit.

[cyborg]

Happy Birthday Moe

Is that Ted Kennedy?

Buddy, a 16-year-old male chimp, initiated the attack and after he was shot, Ollie, a 13-year-old male, grabbed the gravely injured man and dragged him down the road, authorities said.

According to SCOTUS, neither one was old enough to qualify for a death sentence.

A water hose against a chimp is as effective as a shotgun...pity they had to be shot due to the ignorance of human involvement with unsocialized animals! Incidentally, Cheetah, the chimp in all the Tarzan movies reportedly was devoted to Johnny Wisemuller and Ron Eli but couldn't stand the female co-stars.

[Deaf Smith]

The AP reported that his face was chewed off.

GET YOUR HANDS OFF ME YOU DAMNED DIRTY APE!

I thought this was another Michael Jackson story...

[PLMerite]

Anything that can kill you if it freaks out (or does what comes naturally to it) should not be considered for a pet.

[PLMerite]

Yes, I think this guy has removed himself from the gene pool the painful way.
