Chimp and Gorilla populations being devastated by the common cold 12:57 - May 3 with 1980 viewsStokieBlue

It seems that populations of chimps and gorillas are being hugely affect by the common cold caught from tourists who don't follow the rules:

It some regions it accounts for more deaths than habitat loss or poaching which is horrible given it could be easily prevented by people keeping their distance.

In happier great ape news, an Orangutan has been seen treating it's own wounds in the wild using herbs for the first time:

....why was the chimp in Tarzan called "cheetah"?

Surely he should have been called "Chimp".

It must have been really confusing for him and all the other animals, particularly of there were any cheetahs around.

Mindboggling stuff.


I always thought he was called Cheater. Hadn’t thought about that little monkey since the school holidays.

Reflects pretty badly on all those folk who refused to wear masks while their neighbours were dying if even this fella can manage it!


Didn’t the chimps tea party break lockdown rules?

Looking forward to seeing you at the game tomorrow, mate.

Hope you had a nice flight yesterday. Or the day before. I'm not sure how time zones work.

Fulham I think? He was pals with Muhammed Al Fayed for some reason! I seem to remember they had an MJ statue outside the ground!

Depends. Did they eat a slice of cake, or a chicken balti?
