The habitats of common chimpanzees can be 

found in the West and Central Africa.

Chimpanzees are known for their dark black coats 

of hair,

 their hairless sole-feet, hands, and face.

Chimpanzees love to play. They use their long arms

 to climb on trees.

Chimpanzees live in communities so that they 

can be stronger and can defend and attack 

together.

A female chimpanzee protects her baby 

chimps. The chimp holds onto its mother as 

she travels with it everywhere.

Chimpanzees usually walk on all fours, but 

they can also stand and walk upright.

Chimpanzees have thumbs and toes, which 

are helpful for them to grab objects 

easily.

They can often be seen touching each other 

lovingly. You may see them kiss and hold hands 

as well.

It is very common to see a lot of kids 

gathered at the chimpanzee section at a 

zoo.

 A Chimpanzee is always swinging, jumping, and 

pulling themselves up tree branches.

In the whole animal kingdom, chimpanzees 

come closest to looking like humans.

They use sticks to find termites and rocks to 

crack open nuts. They can learn new things.

Chimpanzees communicate with each other 

by panting, barking or drumming. 

They show friendship by combing each others 

furs and pulling out dirt and bugs.

Chimpanzees are omnivores, meaning they 

eat both plants and animals.

Chimpanzees love bananas!

People cut down trees in their habitat. The 

chimps have no place to go. This makes them 

endangered.

Chimpanzees quickly grow to be strong. They can 

be very dangerous. 

The biggest and strongest male always leads 

the group.

Sometimes male chimpanzees fight with 

each other.
