There are people who expect great apes to go extinct within a century (excluding humans, which Macroevolutionists consider also be great apes).

If chimpanzees lifespans could be drastically reduced, they could be farmed and they'd be a valuable source of meat. (sort of an aside).

That is sick no matter how you cut it. Not to mention not at all relevant to the issue being discussed.

Because chimpanzees are so closely related to us and because they therefore host diseases and parasites which specialize in large primates like chimps and humans, this is a spectacularly bad idea.
