I thought my sibling lost his mind when he started talking about adopting a chimpanzee.
He obviously did a lot of research about taking care of them as well as he made nice money in his business, so he figured he could handle taking care of an exotic critter like this.
So he ended up getting the chimp as well as he had an impressive room for the little guy. He occupied a majority of the basement as well as my sibling had an enclosed structure built sort of like what they have at the local zoo. He has had access to fake as well as real trees out there to swing around on for nice exercise. Admittedly, the few times I came out to visit, I was impressed with that chimp as well as he was very affectionate it seemed. Well, when the little guy became older, my sibling said he seemed to be more bored. He explained that chimps don’t do well when they are in captivation as well as are only around humans. They do better in the wild with their own kind, as well as he supposed that his chimp was starting to become depressed. He tried to give everything, even the ideal temperature control settings. The chimp must’ve not liked the temperature control settings though because he ended up chopping the Heating, Ventilation and A/C unit a few times. My sibling eventually had to put a cage around the Heating, Ventilation and A/C unit so the chimp would no longer split it. My sibling eventually made arrangements for the local zoo to take his little chimp where he would be respectfully taken care of. He was sad about the move, although he wanted his chimp to socialize with other chimps as well as he couldn’t afford another one.
