Police hunt Leone 'killer chimps'
2006-04-24
Chimps, why do they hate us you?
Police in Sierra Leone are on the hunt for a group of chimpanzees, who escaped from their wildlife sanctuary after a fatal attack on construction workers. Armed reinforcements are combing the area after a Sierra Leonean died and two Americans were seriously injured. Security personnel said four men were attacked on Sunday after entering the Tacugama Chimpanzee Sanctuary. Angry chimps killed and mutilated the driver. The two Americans are in a hospital in the capital, Freetown. A worker at Tacugama told the BBC that some 24 chimpanzees had escaped, and six had already returned. Armed police arrived after the attack and fired shots which caused panic among local people.

#8  Ever see that Discovery Channel movie on the chimps? They got a group together and hunted down a monkey in a sudden group hankering for fresh meat. They caught the monkey and tore it apart. Then they sat in the trees, being chimpy and all, munching amicably on monkey meat.

#7  Awww, BorgBoy, I wanted to say it. Maybe GWEN STEFANI's "Its Bananas - B-A-N-A-N-AS" lyrics was the secret signal from Caesar to attack.

#6  Hmmph. I'll have you know I have restraining orders against most of those people. (I'll have to check with my lawyer about Coleman).

#5  Hey, hey, they're just monkeys, and people say they monkey around, but they're too busy escaping to put anybody down.

#3  It's always been the planet of the apes. It's just that some of them are short, bald all over, and ugly.
