The largest monkey in the world is the "chimpanzee" of eastern Africa, also known as the "gorilla" (Gorilla gorilla). This orangutan has a huge body and strong muscles, can weigh around 200 kilograms, and often stands more than 2 meters tall. In the wild, chimpanzees live in dense rainforests and feed on fruits, leaves, nuts and insects.
They live in communal groups, often forming communities of multiple families. In a typical community, one male leads the entire group and pairs with multiple females to ensure the continuation of the group. In addition, they communicate through a wide variety of voices and body language, expressing emotions and needs.
Chimpanzees are highly intelligent and social animals with very developed intellectual and emotional abilities. They can use tools such as twigs and stones to break the husks and thus get better food. At the same time, they are also highly socially aware, able to form intimate relationships, and exhibit empathetic and supportive behaviors.
Unfortunately, chimpanzees are currently under threat of extinction. Due to human activities such as deforestation, wildlife trade, and disease spread, chimpanzee habitats have been destroyed and their numbers are gradually decreasing. As a result, governments and wildlife conservation organizations are taking action to protect this rare animal and raise awareness and attention to chimpanzee conservation.
