Chimpanzee

In Assam's Karbi Anglong district, police arrested two persons for allegedly trafficking five wild chimpanzees, on April 13. During a routine checking, a vehicle in Dilai Tiniali along the Assam-Nagaland border was intercepted, and the animals were found. Reportedly, the police handed over the monkeys to the forest department officials of the Manja range district. Further investigation on the matter is awaited.

Belgian woman Adie Timmermans's unconditional love for a 38-year-old chimpanzee named 'Chita' led her to be banned from visiting the Antwerp Zoo. Responding to the question of zoo authorities, she said that she is having an affair with Chita. However, the authorities were concerned about the chimpanzee as the other monkeys ignore him and don't consider him as a part of their group.
