Title: Many attemps have made to raise Chimpanzes as humans have there been any success
Post by: syhprum on 01/08/2022 19:29:25: These attempts have usually ended in disaster with the animal attacking its keepers when it becomes adult.

Some grow out of it, but "teenage rebellion" is the basis for a lot of marketing of stuff that would otherwise be considered spurious rubbish. Chimpanzees are just a bit less inhibited.

I agree with your analyse.
In their natural environment, when chimpanzees become mature, then continuously do some partnership with others in their group. With stronger and with weaker and they finaly understand their place.
The final goal is to become the one they can become.
When they deal with humans, they dont know really who is strong and who is weak : The only way to know is agression.
Agression is normal with chimpanzees and they also quickly reconciliate using some comportemental behaviour, but they have difficulties to reconciliate with humans (humans dont understand how to do).
