Le chimpanzé, (Anthropopithecus calvus), de l'Afrique équatoriale de la côte ouest à la région du lac central, est tout à fait aussi commun en captivité comme l'orang-outan. Tant sur le plan structurel et mentalement cet animal est très semblable à l'orang-outan, et de vivacité de l'intelligence et la sensibilité à la formation, elle est en second lieu à aucun des animaux inférieurs à l'homme.

ORANG-UTAN. lengthy periods will elapse during which it contains neither orang-utans nor chimpanzees. The Chimpanzee, (Anthropopithecus calvus), of equatorial Africa from the west coast to the central lake region, is quite as common in captivity as the orang-utan. Both structurally and mentally this animal is very much like the orang-utan, and for keenness of intellect and susceptibility to training, it is second to none of the animals lower than man. A Chimpanzee is easily recognized by its black hair and large cars. There are two or three species. The Gibbon shows off to poor advantage in a cage, but in the tree-tops it is a wonderful creature. It is like a long- armed skeleton clothed with skin and hair, animated by the spirit of an Ariel. In its home in the jungles of Borneo and southeastern Asia, it dwells in hilly forests, and never descends to the earth. When attacked, it flees down-hill, if possible, and it seems actually to fly through the tree-tops. It boldly flings itself forward through space, grasps with its hands the first available branch, swings underneath, feet foremost, and after another flight presently catches with its feet, thus actually making revolutions as it goes. Its progress is so swift and so silent that successful pursuit is impossible to any enemy not provided with wings. This animal is naturally very timid, but does not hesitate to expose itself to mortal danger when its young are in.
