Having a chimp as a pet is not smart.
At all.

Chimps are smart enough to fight nasty.
Quote: Aggression is a common part of the chimpanzee behavior, whether it's between or within groups.
They can show tremendous mutilation. They go for the face; they go for the hands and feet; they go for the *********. To outsiders, they have very nasty behaviors.

Well I agree that Danny Gokey is kinda hairy and funny looking but I wouldn't exactly call him a chimp.
Or am I missing something here?

It's known that chimps like nuts so why is this surprising? --
Originally by: CCP Whisper No it is not an official statement. Not everything surrounded by blue bars is an official statement which can be quoted as fact until the end of time. Deal with it.

Oh... so... basically... you're telling me that having a chimp has all the drawbacks of having a girlfriend/wife, but without any of the benefits ?

Ugh. Damn things. Hate 'em.
Anyone wanting one as a pet is mentally insufficient. What ever happened to a good old fashioned Timberwolf?
Now theres a pet you can rely on for a high quality, unexpected maiming.
Also, dunno if it's my PC but the linked video has nothing to do with the subject.

the OPs link leads to a feed-style list of videos... where the one shown is the last to be added to the list.
here's a link to the actual video (currently to the upper-right of the list in the OP's link).

Edited by: Malcanis on 20/02/2009 12:40:41 That's a super-sized Darwin Award with a double side of irony.
EDIT: Also most such "pets" are hunted from the wild. The usual technique is to kill the adults and collect the young for sale. If this guy (likely) supported this vile trade he deserved exactly what he got.

That guy got off lightly by the looks there was a program on discovery a while back that covered rogue animals and the episode about chimps described how lethal they can be, they have 3x the upper body strength of a human and can run much faster and when they attack they use hands and feet as well as biting and they bite fingers off and chew faces apart and its fairly common for them to attack a males genitals and tear off the ********* and they can easily beat a human to death with their huge strength.

Dirty fighters. Nothing a liberal dose of .45 ACP to the face wouldn't fix.
What confuses me is why the woman wouldn't have a gun in the house. As one article said - It's like having a Bengal Tiger in your house. He may be friendly sometimes, but if he snaps, its all over.
Naturally you'd want a Contingency plan for that day - in the form of something gun shaped.
Humor edit - Like a banana! Hurr.

I suppose it makes sense to have something just in case but IIRC that cop shot the chimp several times and it walked back to its room then died. Animals can be pretty darn hard to put down.
Reminds me of a story a friend's brother told me. He would take hunters out to hunt Kodiak bears (read really big bears). He told me these wealthy hunters would often show up with a pistol. He'd ask them what that was for and they'd respond it was a last resort thing. He'd tell the hunter he had better file the site down because it'll hurt less when the bear, after getting shot by the pistol, takes it away from them and shoves it up their ass.
Yeah a bear is loads bigger than a chimp and anything is better than nothing but still...don't be surprised if the animal remains unconcerned and keeps coming (in short...unload your whole clip into it as fast as possible).

True facts.
Hence the elaboration for "the face".
Most animals do the whole "Fight or Flight" thing, I can imagine in the case of a Chimp, it would very much Fight until bleeding out unless you either removed half of its torso with Buckshot, or ventilated its frontal lobe.
Alas, I thought the Remington 12 Gauge was a staple for home security!
The pistol thing reminds me of a video I saw of some dude getting nommed by a lion in some Circus. Despite shooting it in the HEAD once, it still continued to nom until they provided a second shot straight in the catface. Not sure if the guy who got nommed died, I think he bled out.
The lion died eventually, but you could tell it was still going to try and take them out despite having two .357 shaped slugs of lead embedded in its brain.
Disturbing.
As a species - Humans are preeetty weak compared with who we share this planet with. Its just a good thing that most creatures out there are Passive-Aggressive, otherwise we'd be ****ed.
War on Nature = not good.

The Kodiak hunter guy, in the course of that discussion, said he had seen (or heard of...I forget) a Kodiak getting shot in the head by a .45 pistol. The bullet ricocheted off its skull!

Around where I live we have the black bear. Granted they are smaller than Kodiaks but you're still talking about 450-600lbs of muscle and a bad bad temper charging you at 30mph.
Usually when I horseback locally in my area I carry my colt navy but not because I'm going to shoot it as that would be pointless but usually the sound itself is enough to scare it back some. If I go into the deeper mountainous regions then I also sling my 7mm which does have the stopping power but it may still take a few shots. Luckily though I have yet to encounter one at close range. I would actually feel bad about having to shoot one for protecting it's territory.

I don't think you could teach chimp to shop/iron/wash dishes/clean house, but other than that... who knows?

You know humans are pretty hard to put down too.
All these are reasons why in real life you aim not for the head, but for the chest, and a hugely important thing is stopping power. You really want to just keep knocking what your shooting at down repeatedly until the finally do die of organ failure or pass out of blood loss.
People are just as durable as animals, problem is most of them are not as aggressive and pain tolerant. -- Distortion| Distortion 2 Preview |
