An adult chimp is massively powerful and never tame.
“An adult chimp is massively powerful and never tame.”
Absolutely. Had a neighbor when I was a teen that had one. She was pretty sweet, although I saw her pick up a car key and bend it like it was a paper clip. The neighbor decided the burbs weren’t the best place after she got loose when he wasn’t home and went into a convenience store that was next door. She tore the store up before he finally got there, calmed her down and took her home. The cops were real close to shooting her. He knew a lady on the beach that also had one and moved there. Now to the how dangerous they are part. The chimp cage was an inside / outside cage so they could get fresh air or be inside. BIG sign on the outside part of the cage warning to “STAY AWAY DO NOT APPROACH OR ATTEMPT TO TOUCH THE CAGE OR ANIMALS. Sure enough two kids walked up off the beach and one of ‘em was out there. One of the kids stuck his finger into the cage to touch the chimp, and BAM, it grabbed his hand and bit his finger clean off just that quick. You are correct, they are indeed very powerful and never tame.
