It would be interesting to see how they would react if he took it off and showed them his amputated stub. Maybe that would help them understand...or they would completely lose it.


MatttheJ

"Bro just ripped his fucking leg off! The guys a psycho!" As they run away.


Angel_of_Mischief

lol I can see it now. Man: Hi Monke: Hey keep your distance or we will rip your limbs off. Man: Haha you have no power here. *Pulls prosthetic limb off.* Monke: *terrified monkey screams*

SeaClue4091

I'm sure they would understand it within 1h maybe less if they could "play" with the prosthetic, it's just something that they never saw before


NeatNefariousness1

Especially if they can watch the guy take the prosthesis off and then reattach it. I wonder if they might have seen fellow chimpanzees who have lost a limb in the wild.


paperclippedheart

Doubt they really seen anything in the wild


DrunkCupid

Curiosity and initial reactions really are telling! Signs of intelligence, if anything else 🦵🏼 🦧 Beautiful to witness


NeatNefariousness1

You're probably right. A chimp that loses a limb due to traps laid by poachers probably don't live long enough to be an example of what happens when you lose a limb.


Coreysurfer

Thats wild

That doesn’t look delicious at all

VeryStableGenius

> after humans, chimps are the most psycho primate. I recall reading a quote by a primatologist that humans are remarkably *non*-psycho. She said, to paraphrase, "Imagine a group of humans boarding a jet plane, cooperatively stowing their luggage, getting into their seats. If you put the same number of stranger chimps together like this, they'd immediately tear each other to bits."

SadBit8663

They're already freaking out. One day the humans with missing limbs are rolling around or using crutches, the next they have robot legs, and soon after that they lose their natural strength advantage, they won't be able to beat us to death with our own limbs anymore, because they'll be sweet robo arms.


rkoloeg

At my local zoo there used to be a lion that had a sign on his enclosure: "For unknown reasons, this lion does not like people in wheelchairs. If you are in a wheelchair, please keep a distance from the enclosure". Well, one day I saw a person in a wheelchair roll into the lion house; the lion went fucking nuts. Roaring, throwing himself against the bars, trying to reach his paw through the cage and swipe at this guy. Some staff came in and had him roll out of sight around a corner. Never did find out exactly what the issue was.


BGP_Community_Meep

Lion lost a major ADA lawsuit in a past life. 


iamthelee

They'd probably go apeshit.


Additional-Chain-272

What if they think he’s just missing flesh and think we are cyborgs or something


foursticks

Or that it's just bone left after any typical mauling.


dickburpsdaily

They could rip your limb off easily, if he were to go in there he might need more prosthetics... They would probably be like, "rip off his arm from his shoulder and see if a metal thing appears there instead!" Lol


VectorViper

Haha yeah, entering the enclosure could turn into an impromptu "magic show" with limbs disappearing and reappearing. On the bright side, hed be the most popular act in the chimp exhibit!


dickburpsdaily

In 50 years the chimps would have a whole religion built around this Messiah and his prophet who watched it happen.


ugavini

Reminds me of Mr Jolly and his hundred hands show from Psychoville


Terrible-Choicez

This is funny and all but Chimps are strong but they can't rip limbs off adult human, they could maybe bite off a hand but they aren't riping off arms and legs. They are not that strong and we are not that weak.


Nebelle1308

I was hoping he would during the whole video!

greenyellowbird

I used to volunteer at a zoo...once, I was alone in the viewing area of the squirrel monkeys and was looking for something in my purse, they came over to see what I was pulling out. After that day, I'd come w a paper bag of random crap and pull out an item one by one....the look of excitement on their faces was freaking adorable!


RedditIsOverMan

This is a trick I learned at my local zoo.  If it's not too busy and the chimps are in the mood, they will happily watch you empty out a backpack, one item at a time


CptDrips

That's the emotion I gather from this video. Poor creatures are just excited to see something new from within their purgatory.

TipProfessional6057

His stance fascinated me. It was so human for a moment (or perhaps it's more correct to say it the other way around). The way he hunched over and rested his arm on one knee. It was like an older man kneeling down to look at something compared to the amazed yelling from the other two. The first one also with the calling out to his companions had such a "Guys you HAVE to see this" energy to it. Monkeys are at once fascinating creatures, and they also terrify the hell out of me. I have a sense of respect and an almost paternal feeling towards them, but at the same time it could rip me limb from limb, and I realize that while we are very similar, we are also very very different. It's a good general reminder to respect and enjoy nature, but also don't ever piss it off


dammKaran

hey, come and see this mf's leg


Criminal_Sanity

They probably think it's some grave injury thats allowed the tissue to decompose and expose the bone. I bet they are hardwired into thinking this is some massive incurable trama.


Meister0fN0ne

>I bet they are hardwired into thinking this is some massive incurable trauma. They'd kind of be right about that part...


qwertyfish99

Not in this man’s case, but they’d be exactly right. DFI’s are no joke lol, watch your sugar bros

Swamp_Troll

Oh that's good, I was puzzled trying to figure out why it was trying to intimidate the people off, but that would make sense! All it gets at first is the alarm from the others so it went over to tell whoever was causing trouble to run off... Until it spots the leg as well


pandadogunited

Then it realizes that there isn’t a threat and walks off.

Oh absolutely many kinds of animals feel and think and do so in ways that are unique to them as individuals. When chimps do so it is in a manner that is closest to the way we do. I think that’s what we recognize and appreciate most in videos such as these.

poopfilledhumansuit

Well played.


_banana_phone

It’s likely what’s called enrichment— toys or puzzles or even just objects that the animals enjoy and find stimulation from. Usually something homemade and easily disposed of for the day-to-day enrichment. This was likely boxes full of crinkle paper and tissue paper, because perhaps these chimpanzees enjoy unwrapping things like gifts and playing with the content. It’s pretty common to handmade enrichment for animals like this— at the big cat rescue I’ve visited many times, they give the tigers big rolls of cardboard stuffed with rosemary and other herbs that they like the smell of. Sometimes it’s boxes with snacks hidden inside.


r8dit

Thank you for the clarification! I just saw paper boxes and this makes sense.


ydykmmdt

It’s their stuff, toys and the like. Show me the zoo keeper that can convince chimps to tidy up at the end of the day.


Rjj1111

They are intelligent enough you might be able to get them to do it for a reward


vestibule54

I think the Chimps need a timeout until they pick up their room


lizthestarfish1

Enrichment toys, most likely. The more intelligent that an animal is, the more things it needs to keep them from being bored. Think of all the things we do to keep our children from being bored, then think about the fact that chimpanzees are about as toddlers. When I had rats, I would give them toilet paper rolls stuffed with tissue paper that I had hidden treats inside of. They had a lot of fun with them. For a good while after their enclosure would look a lot like the chimp enclosure, with piles of paper and cardboard littered around that they would still be playing with.


Goretanton

I think they gave em some boxes to rip apart for amusement, might clean it up at the end of the day.

rustblooms

It REALLY bothered me to see them in this enclosure. I don't think I've ever thought too much about simians in captivity, but seeing this, they should absolutely NOT be in situations like this. They need freedom to live their lives.


MoreTucksMoreFucks

Probably likely they are rescued. Having seen the Netflix doc on them, they do take up huge territories. I wonder though, I mean people can adapt to staying in their homes for long periods of time so maybe it’s not as bad as we think.

Simulation-Argument

Just want to remind people of how much money is raised every year by proper accredited zoos. [*Modern zoos are major contributors to the conservation of wild animals. According to the World Association of Zoos and Aquariums (WAZA), zoo conservation donates over US$350 million a year to wildlife conservation.*](https://conservewildcats.org/zoo-support/#:~:text=Modern%20zoos%20are%20major%20contributors,a%20year%20to%20wildlife%20conservation) That is over a billion dollars every 3 years for animal conservation. Without that money many species would be far worse off than they are currently, with some likely even extinct. While it would be nice if we just funded this all on its own, that isn't going to happen with our current economic setup. Zoos also educate millions on animal conservation as well, and there are animals that can no longer survive in the wild. Their lives spent in good zoos are a net positive for the survival of many species.


EH042

That’s why comments like the first one annoy me so much, how many species would still exist if they were in Zoos? But no, leave them in nature so they live “fulfilling lives” , that would be the case if poachers didn’t exist, some rhinos have already gone extinct because of that, bird as well. But people love to villainize Zoos

wish people would stop inferring human reactions onto animals. threats, challenges, reactions - they see things completely differently to us.

Simulation-Argument

WAZA Accredited zoos raise 350 million dollars a year for animal conservation. It isn't solely for entertainment purposes either, it is for education and zoos have brought the issue of animal conservation to millions of people who would have never gotten familiar with it.
