    Extractions: Physical description Infant chimpanzees weigh about four pounds at birth. By adulthood chimpanzees weigh approximately 95-150 pounds and are 3 to 4 feet tall. A chimpanzee's body is covered with short thick,black hair. General information Chimpanzees are very social animals." Chimpanzees as a whole usually live in large groups of 30 to 80 chimpanzees: females, males and their offspring. However, chimpanzees divide into smaller groups for hunting and foraging. This allows them to cover more ground and be able to feed from the best foraging locations (Monkeys and Apes p.26)."Separating into smaller groups also decreases the ' constant ' dissension among competing male chimpanzees "(Monkeys and Apes p.27). "Female chimpanzees give birth to a single infant about every 3 to 5 years so the arrival of a new chimpanzee is special and exciting for the other chimps in the group "(Monkeys and Apes p.28). "Baby chimps weigh only about 4 pounds at birth and are as about as helpless as human babies. Female chimps give their baby lots of love and affection. This love and affection can be seen when the mother chimp cradles and rocks her infant to sleep. Even her breast feeding is second only to that of a human mother" (Monkeys and Apes p.30).

    Extractions: cyn@primatefreedom.com I just saw a Capitol One commercial that features chimpanzees as well as orangutans and monkeys. These nonhuman primates are dressed up to party in a jungle house with a lot of stuff purchased on a stolen non-Capitol One credit card. Tell Capitol One that you will not buy their products or services while they are exploiting chimpanzees as advertising tools. Remind them that: - Performing chimpanzees are always children, stolen from their mothers prematurely in order to be trained. Chimpanzees in the wild have a long childhood, just like us. - Training methods often include beatings, and chimpanzees are forced to perform unnatural and sometimes painful acts out of fear of punishment. Chimpanzees normally don't walk upright, and a "grinning" chimpanzee - like the one at the end of their commercial - is really expressing fear. - Often, performing chimpanzees are isolated from others. Chimpanzees are highly social, like their human cousins, and suffer when deprived of companionship. - Performing chimpanzees who have grown too big and strong to be easily controlled are often sold into biomedical research. Chimpanzees can live to be 60 years old, but performers are usually discarded before they reach eight.

47. Controversy Over 'jumble Sale' Of The Last Laboratory Chimpanzees In The Europea
    This group has developed a site in Southern Spain in order to house a retirementfacility dedicated to exlaboratory primates, including chimpanzees.  
    http://veederandld.20m.com/greports/7601.html
    
    Extractions: Controversy over 'jumble sale' of the last laboratory chimpanzees in the European Union The Coalition to End Experimentation on Chimpanzees in Europe (CEECE) has condemned plans announced by the Dutch government earlier this week to allow the controversial Biomedical Primate Research Centre (BPRC) to send 46 young and female chimpanzees to zoos in Europe and China. If this goes ahead, these primates could be at risk of being used for breeding or even sent on to other laboratories for more research. The plans were revealed in a written statement made to the Dutch parliament on Monday by Loek Hermans, Minister for Education, Culture and Science. In addition, the Minister revealed his desire to leave all the 26 chimpanzees infected with human viruses such as HIV and hepatitis C at the BPRC, a place where they have lived their entire lives in barren steel cages, unable to go outdoors or see the sky except through a small skylight window. Also, Hermans declared that he would consider allowing a further six chimpanzees to be deliberately infected with hepatitis C in 2002. Jonathan Pearce, campaigns director of the World Society for the Protection of Animals, a founder member of CEECE, said, "It is scandalous that the Dutch government would even consider splitting up the chimps at the BPRC in what is little more than a chimp jumble sale for foreign zoos. If the Dutch government is sincere about the needs and rights of great apes, it must ensure that the future of all these animals is one in which they are cared for in a purpose-built retirement facility, where their welfare and ability to express natural behaviours is guaranteed"

48. About SNPRC Primates
    as they are a more arboreal (or aboveground) dwelling species than the baboonsor chimpanzees. Marmosets and tamarins are small, South American primates.  
    http://www.srprc.org/srprc/aboutprimates.html
    
    Extractions: Primates SNPRC is home to the world's largest baboon colony , presently comprising about 3,700 animals. Most of the baboons at the facility are olive baboons (Papio hamadryas anubis), but there are also some hamadryas baboons (Papio hamadryas hamadryas), red baboons (Papio hamadryas papio) and yellow baboons (Papio hamadryas cynocephalus). SNPRC also has a pedigreed baboon colony of about 700 individuals, whose family ancestral lines are well-documented. These baboons live in groups with 15-30 females, their infants, and one male so that the sire is known. Infant baboons are black when they are born, turning the brownish color of the adults when they are about 6 months old. Male and female baboons are very protective of youngsters in their group, and females are especially eager to touch newborn infants. They may follow the mother and groom her to get a chance to touch the infant. At the other end of the age spectrum is our Pedigreed Geriatric Baboon Colony. This colony contains around 300 animals, all greater than 16 years of age. Of these, over 240 have been genotyped for the 330 microsatellite markers used in our gene mapping studies; eventually, all the animals will be genotyped. These animals are a unique and precious resource for investigating genetic contributions to the physiology of aging, including understanding of osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, and menopause.

    Extractions: Author: Steve Bunk Do apes have feelings? Do they recognize and understand emotions? Behavioral and biomedical scientists are beginning to put aside old differences concerning such questions and combine their efforts to shed new light on what nonhuman primates may reveal about human evolution. A national leader in this emerging interdisciplinary approach is the Yerkes Regional Primate Research Center at Emory University in Atlanta. In September of 1977, the university established a Living Links Center (LLC) at the Yerkes field station in Lawrenceville, Ga. Relying on the expertise of Emory faculty and visiting scientists in such fields as ethology, comparative psychology, molecular biology, anthropology, and neuroscience, the center examines evolutionary connections between humans and their closest living relatives. The origins of sociality, self-awareness, numeracy, language, and even morality in nonhuman primates are being investigated. Work is under way on sequencing the chimpanzee genome, and studies of great ape brains draw on such technology as MRI and PET scans, as well as electron and confocal microsocopy.

    Extractions: National Geographic may have just acquired a new fan base; but is it the pictures, or the cool covers? The chimpanzees at the Henry Vilas Zoo in Madison, Wisconsin, recently received six boxes of back issues from a group of local schoolchildren, and the publications appear to be a big hit. The magazines are scattered about their living quarters to simulate the big leafy plants found in their native habitat, said Jim Hubing, director of the zoo. But the chimps sometimes flip through the glossy pages, and react to certain pictures. An orangutan in Madison's Henry Vilas Zoo holds a copy of National Geographic.

Most parents count the fingers and toes on their newborns to make sure everything is normal. This trait is not unique to humans. Chimpanzees do it too, said Virginia Landau, program director of ChimpanZoo. Landau will present her lecture, "The Nature of Chimpanzees," at 7 tonight at the Holiday Inn. The lecture is sponsored by Sunset Zoological Park. Admission is free. Related link Sunset Zoo She will compare chimpanzees in the wild with those in captivity and explain some of the problems for chimpanzees in the wild. The lecture will also include a slide show of a chimpanzee research center. ChimpanZoo is an organization interested in improving the lives of chimpanzees and educating people about them. Landau has been working with chimpanzees for 10 years. She said there is something different about people who work with chimpanzees as compared with other animals in a zoo.
