Chimpanzees are now hunting with spears?

Well, I for one welcome our new Chimpanzee overlords.

Interesting to say the least.

Capable of higher order communication (sign language) and now showing capability of tool manufacture and use.

Either primates are more intelligent than we ever believed or they are masters of mimicry. Either way, we need to keep an eye on them.

Soon they will be demanding negotiated contracts and unionization.

Global warming is accelerating the evolutionary dynamic in some species.

Bertolani witnessed a chimpanzee extract a bushbaby with a spear.

Uh be careful there, Jesse Jackson may be out trying to get reparations for those critters from the oppressive chimp majority.

If they bite the ears off the primates , I can point out a close relative in the fight game.

After the chimp removed the tool, it would commonly smell or lick it.

MUST NOT COMMENT

I suppose the next thing we will hear is that they are using sani-cans.

Stabbing with a stick is NOT using a spear..
Like throwing rocks is not ejecting a projectile..

Chimpanzees were observed jabbing the spears into hollow trunks or branches, over and over again. After the chimp removed the tool, it would commonly smell or lick it.

A biological antecedent?

American chimps can chuck spears while skating backwards, AND smoking a cigar.

USA! USA! USA!

"wooden spears"

Do they also shave their heads when they do this?

Witness the rise of the Planet of the Apes!!!!

"Beware the beast man, for he is the Devil's pawn. Alone among God's primates, he kills for sport or lust or greed. Yea, he will murder his brother to possess his brother's land. Let him not breed in great numbers, for he will make a desert of his home and yours. Shun him; drive him back into his jungle lair, for he is the harbinger of death."-Sacred scroll of the apes.

There was an young man from Santee
Who molested she-chimps in a tree:
..The results, all quite horrid,
..All ass and no forehead,
Three balls and purple goatee.
