Unless they actually observed the chimps building the ladder, give it time, we will find out someone “helped” them along.

This is pretty impressive. Perhaps these chimps are ready for the next step?

Next they’ll be sitting down at typewriters and typing out Webster’s dictionary.

“An inquiry is now underway to determine what happened.
...??????.....didn’t they just say what happen?”

LMAO! I don’t know why I find your comment funny, but it’s hilarious.

Voting for Obama and his Democrats perhaps?

“An inquiry is now underway to determine what happened.”

“It was a mistake for the Zoo to play Pink Floyd on the sound system.”

Also banned, due to said inquiry, will be the following:

Band on the Run
Born to be Wild
We Gotta Get out of This Place
Crazy Train.....etc

They can rip your FACE off!! They arew NOT cute.

When I was going to college, I would take a short cut through a biology building, which allowed me to pass by cages with small primates, perhaps gibbons. I knew they kept Chimpazees in the building, and to my surprise I was greeted by a chimp approaching in the opposite direction. We both sort of ignored each other, but I wondered what he was doing roaming the halls. About a week later, the doors to that hallway were permanently locked.

PF's greatest concert was in front of the recently defunct Berlin Wall. Suprised you didn't associate the connection.

Oh shoot. I should have know that. It was the last time they played as a full group I think. Thanks for the reminder. Blonde moment today.

I suspect 99.99% of all human-chimp encounters are uneventful. It’s that other 0.01%. I was lucky, but I was cautious, I didn’t make eye contact or approach the animal and got away calmly, and promptly. I noticed that there was a USDA car parked behind the building for about a week after the doors to that section of building were locked. I think someone realized that that outfit needed adult supervision.
