Monkeys, by Jacob


Chimpanzees are cool because they act like humans. I think that they are an animal/caveman type of thing.

Chimpanzees live in Africa and China. They grow p to three to four-and-a-half feet tall. The weigh up to 110 pounds.

Their habitat is in the forest. Chimps live in groups of 30 to 80 individuals. Chimps use bamboo or large sticks to throw at their enemies.

I hope to own a monkey one day. To me, they are the most interesting and funny animals in the world.

  2. I have a good friend who really, REALLY wanted a monkey for a pet when she was young. She drew up detailed plans for the climbing structure she would build in her room for the monkey, and calculated how much it would cost to buy enough bananas to keep the monkey happy every day. While she eventually decided a monkey would not make the best of pets [they sometimes bite, and need a lot of attention], she did end up volunteering at the zoo, with the monkeys, when she got a bit older.
