Description
The Los Angeles Zoo is home to one of the largest chimpanzee troops of any zoo in the country. Built in 1998, the Zoo's Chimpanzees of the Mahale Mountains habitat has been hailed by renowned primatologist Jane Goodall as one of the country's finest chimpanzee habitats. Maintaining a healthy, diverse zoo population of chimpanzees is crucial to the survival of the species. Unfortunately, chimpanzees are currently on the endangered species list. Although chimpanzees are protected in 34 national parks and reserves, laws can be difficult to enforce in remote regions. Chimpanzees are highly intelligent and complex creatures. They are social animals and live in communities of up to 80 individuals. They also have highly developed hearing and sight, and like all apes, color vision. You may have noticed that chimpanzees are capable of a wide variety of facial expressions that can reveal many emotions. Chimpanzees are not only gifted communicators, but they are also skilled craftsmen.
