Its not easy and there is a lot of training and testing and its hard core. Some looney toons suburban dipshit decides she and her friend can handle re caging/caring for a wild UNDOMESTICATED animal thats clearly out of control? WHAT HAPPENED IS PREDICTABLE, except if you think you have a magical connection to your pet and therefore nothing like this could ever possibly happen. I have a dog. A well behaved dog. But I never forget that she is an animal and can revert back to survivor behavior if she gets scared or startled or injured. I dont believe just because I love her and she is my pet that she couldnt one day bite me or someone else. Its not likely but imagine having a CHIMP and then the likelihood of a non domesticated animal (unlike a dog which is domesticated for thousands of years) this woman was a felony waiting to happen. Honestly, it's horrible what happened but how can you say the chimp was undomesticated when he'd been living with the woman since he was three days old. You can't domesticate a chimp, and I think this is pretty much proof of this.

I'm sure every baby chimp is cute and when they get a little older they are extremely intelligent and sweet for years and people love them because of what we see in shows, etc. But I would think that a owner of one would take the time to do a little research and find out that most old chimps get really crazy and REALLY violent, and no person in the freaking world can control a violent chimp. This owner stabbed the chimp and it didn't stop. Who the fuck keeps something like that at home? And people bitch about pitbulls...

From the tone of his voice it sounded like he thought it was a prank call but even as she reiterated that the chimp was ripping her friend apart he still had that condescending tone.

Animals included in this list that do not fully meet this criterion are designated "captive-bred" or semi-domesticated. The term domestic animal applies to domesticated animals that actually live in physical proximity to humans, such as pets and guard animals, or even food species kept very close, e.g. to live on domestic food scraps and/or so their body heat can be used as 'stable heating'. So dogs and cats are domesticated. Cattle are semi domesticated A wolf rescued from the wild and raised from a young age as a pet? STILL NOT DOMESTICATED. The chimp was captive bred, but not domesticated.

I could see being skeptical at first when you hear about a chimp attack, but the panic in that woman's voice would definitely clue you in that it wasn't a prank, especially since it was a long call. The dispatcher sounded like an ass.

I'd probably think it was some kind of prank, too. I don't think the owner should be punished. Seeing a chimp that she raised rip apart her best friend's face is enough punishment, I imagine.

I guess 911 operators do get some crazy crank calls, but you could hear all the screaming going on, and you could hear how genuinely upset she was.

I read that all the chimps you see in movies/commercials are always under the age of 8 because once a male reaches adolescence and adulthood they become extremely violent and aggressive by nature, even if they've been raised in captivity/around humans. And even experienced animal handlers wouldn't approach adult male chimps. This woman obviously knew nothing about the animal she was raising because she wanted to believe he was just like a human. And her poor friend has to pay for her stupidity.

Though in this case, it wasn't their pet that attacked, but chimps were still involved.
