Smoking Chimps

[Sgt. Boomer]

\"As reported in Out There last summer, a female chimpanzee at the zoo in Zhengzhou, China, took up smoking out of frustration at her mate\'s lack of prowess in the, um, tree.

Maybe she could find sympathy at the zoo in Bloemfontein, South Africa, where Charlie, a very macho male member of her species, has become a positive nicotine fiend after learning how to bum smokes off zoo visitors.\"
From FOX News, photos of Charlie available.

lol i saw this on the news...
kinda sad but oh well, they\'re just gonna die in those cages anyways...i think that dying sooner would be better =/

that\'s awesome! i wonder if they can learn to play sports too if you immersed him in it the same way. i remember there was some show on the other day where they were teaching chimps to spell and discovered they actually have a spoken language. cool stuff.

its a horrible thought, but the worst part is it makes me look at that chimp as if it has some sort of human touch... oO

Atleast he doesn\'t inhale...
