chimpanzee attacks stupid people

February 18th, 2009 · No Comments

Heres a wild story about a chimpanzee attack I came across today. It makes me wonder just how stupid people can really be. Firstly If you have a chimpanzee for a pet you’re an idiot. Secondly If you have a chimpanzee and he attacks you dont act surprised. Thirdly if you have a chimpanzee or monkey and you put him on xanax because hes depressed I suggest you get your head checked. Its not the chimpanzee its you. Look people a chimpanzee is a wild animal you’re an absolute loser if you think you’re doing it any favours by having a monkey as a pet, feeding him steak, lobster and ice cream and then wondering  why a chimpanzee attacks.

“Investigators are trying to figure out why — whether it was a bout of Lyme disease, a reaction to drugs, or a case of instinct taking over”.

I’ll answer that for you. Hes a chimpanzee its what they do. Watch and lsiten to this video Stupid is as stupid does.

“It’s hard to say what exactly precipitated this behavior,” said Colleen McCann, a primatologist at the Bronx Zoo. “At the end of the day, they are not human and you can’t always predict their behavior and how they or any other wild animal will respond when they feel threatened.”

Travis the chimpanzee attacked 55-year-old Charla Nash as Sandra Herold frantically stabbed her beloved pet chimpanzee  with a butcher knife and pounded him with a shovel. Nash was in critical condition Tuesday with “life-changing, if not life-threatening,” injuries to her face and hands, Mayor Dannel Malloy said.

Police said they are looking into the possibility of criminal charges. A pet (crazed chimpanzee?) owner can be held criminally responsible if he or she knew or should have known that an animal was a danger to others.

In recordings of calls to 911about the chimpanzee attack dispatchers released Tuesday, Travis’ grunts can be heard as a frantic Herold cries that her pet is “eating” Nash and must be killed. The attack lasted about 12 minutes.

“The chimp killed my friend!” says a sobbing Herold, who was hiding in her vehicle. “Send the police with a gun. With a gun!”

The dispatcher later asks, “Who’s killing your friend?”

“My chimpanzee!” she cries. “He ripped her apart! Shoot him, shoot him!”

After police arrive, one officer radios back: “There’s a man down. He doesn’t look good,” he says, referring to Nash. “We’ve got to get this guy out of here. He’s got no face.”

Herold told New York-based WNYW-TV in an interview that aired Tuesday night that she has agonized over Nash’s injuries and that Travis’ death is “something that I can’t hardly live with because he went in his room and died, and I wasn’t with him. I couldn’t get back in the house.”

Police said that Travis was agitated earlier Monday and that Herold had given him the anti-anxiety drug Xanax in some tea. Police said the drug had not been prescribed for the 14-year-old chimp.

In humans, Xanax can cause memory loss, lack of coordination, reduced sex drive and other side effects. It can also lead to aggression in people who were unstable to begin with, said Dr. Emil Coccaro, chief of psychiatry at the University of Chicago Medical Center.

“Xanax could have made him worse,” if human studies are any indication, Coccaro said.

If you ever want to suffer a  chimpanzee attack sure as shit giving him xanax will do the trick

Aidan on the boat house

During the summer we had the opportunity to spend sometime in Mont-saint marie at a friends cottage. But I never took the time to post any images for friends and family to see. Heres a picture of Aidan on the boat house, right before he went into in the inflatable dingy that gets towed behind the Sea doo. He had a blast being that dingy thingy but said that the middle seat was kinda scary.

Oh no we’re Hockey parents

Thank god there's a Timmies (Tim Hortons is a coffee shop - for my American friends) not too far from where we live, it makes the whole notion of getting up at an un-godly hour in the morning on the weekend, just that much more bearable. Ok rant aside, it's really quite entertaining to be honest. Comon seriously how can you not find a gaggle of 5,6 and 7 yrs olds suited up in the latest high tech body armour doing battle on the ice chasing a puck around for an hour each morning on the weekends. What usually takes place ...

And so it begins

My god what have we done !!! In our infinite wisdom and ignorance. We have started Aidan down the dark and winding path into the sub culture of the Boarders. Perhaps we should call him Aidan Boarder. Aidan successfully completed Grade 1, apparently there was a 3 hr exam. And a 500 hundred word essay. Man the demands on Grade 1ers have gotten tougher. SO he's going to Grade 2 next year. In his words "grade is harder because you have to to take away, adding to is EASY taking away is hard-right shane" I'm going to guess this is some form of high ...
