Deimos Posted October 7, 2004 #1 Share Posted October 7, 2004 (edited) This is one of a population of mysterious chimps that have been reported from Africa recently. These apes have come to be known as the bondo mystery apes. The hunter on the left is 5'10" and 175 lbs., so you can guess how big the chimp is. I personally HATE chimps , so for me to see this is quite a shock. anyway, what do you guys think?

Deimos Posted October 7, 2004 Author #3 Share Posted October 7, 2004 Uh.. why do you hate chimps? 294733[/snapback] I think they're disgusting. They eat monkeys, and they're hideous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jenk Posted October 7, 2004 #6 Share Posted October 7, 2004 Were in Africa was this taken? Thats one huge Chimp . I have to admitt I don't really like chimps much either. I was fine with them until I learned some of their social activities (such as agressive males beating baby chimps to death dispite their mothers protests ), well actualy I only mind the crazy agressive males (who could dislike the cute baby chimps ).

Cobalt Demon Posted October 7, 2004 #7 Share Posted October 7, 2004 I dont really like chimp either, I just think they look way too human but just hairer and uglier. But I dont want any harm or anything bad happen to them though. However I LOVE Lemur esp the ringed tail lemur Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Janiel Posted October 7, 2004 #10 Share Posted October 7, 2004 well, yea, thats what i was implying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seraphina Posted October 7, 2004 #11 Share Posted October 7, 2004 (edited) I don't think it really needs implying Do you think the hunters convinced it to walk into their shack, sit down between them, roll its head, and make a cheesy grin for the camera? On a sidenote, I do consider killing a chimp in much the same light I consider killing a human...much like I consider the practice in some places of Africa of EATING chimps, one step short of cannabilism.

Guest Lottie Posted October 7, 2004 #12 Share Posted October 7, 2004 Thats a stuffed toy! Behind the man of the right looks like a stuffed toy giraffe. We have just got a sneak preview of the new Toys R Us in Africa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Lottie Posted October 7, 2004 #15 Share Posted October 7, 2004 look at it's "junk" I honestly thought...anyway... Okay on a serious note... Hunting and shooting these animals is barbaric and that photo is nothing but foul and sickening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seraphina Posted October 7, 2004 #16 Share Posted October 7, 2004 I agree....chimps are our closest relatives on the planet, and the fact that they're still hunted in some places of the world, with their numbers dwindling as it is, is absolutely horrific.

Panthera leo atrox Posted October 7, 2004 #19 Share Posted October 7, 2004 It could be an example of a Bondo/Bili ape (thought to maybe be a new chimpanzee subspecies), or it could just be a big chimpanzee! http://www.rfthomas.clara.net/papers/bili.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jenk Posted October 8, 2004 #24 Share Posted October 8, 2004 No my friend, chimps are sickening. I don't like them. I respect them as part of our natural world, but I HATE them. What does that say about us since we are extremly closely related? The sad thing about humans is that we are able to do so much good and sadly so much evil. When I see a mother and child I feel a rush of protectivness while else were in the world men attack a school with mothers and children inside. How much better are we than the chimps I ask?

I'm sure there's an animal out there that you're not too fond of. for some people it's spiders or snakes, but I've got chimps. Besides, the MAIN reason I hate them is because they have been known to take human babies and eat or severly injure them. Maybe I find them so repulsive becasue they are so human, I dont know. But I do know that I hate them with a passion. Edited October 8, 2004 by Monster Hunter X Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
