Whoa! this is pretty disturbing… listening to the owner of the chimp on the 911 call. she seems demonic about half way through… she’s obviously nearly delirious at what happen to her friend.
note* it’s not easy to listen to… so if you are easily upset… probably shouldn’t listen to it then.
I read early reports that the stupid monkey bit both her hands off, but later reports do not mention this. Any one know if thats true or not?
thats what i heard too, she had a seven hour surgery… 4 different teams worked on her… she is stable from what I last heard. She’s probably a mess I would bet.
remember a couple years ago when another chimp attacked a couple? Ripped the guys dick off!!!
“The chimps chewed off most of Davis’ face, tore off his foot and attacked his limbs and genitals.”
(CNN) – A woman has been hospitalized with serious injuries to her face, neck and hands after a pet chimpanzee attacked her at a friend’s home in Stamford, Connecticut.
When the chimp ripped off a side mirror and tried to enter a police cruiser, officers shot the animal multiple times.
2 of 2 Charla Nash, 55, had just arrived at her friend Sandra Herold’s house when the chimp, named Travis, jumped on her and began biting and mauling her, according to Stamford Police Capt. Rich Conklin, who said the attack was unprovoked.
Herold had called Nash over to her house to help get Travis back inside after he used a key to free himself from the house.
After the attack, Herold was unable to pull the primate off her friend. She then called 911 before grabbing a butcher knife and stabbing the chimp, who police said was like a child to her.
Stamford police shot the chimp multiple times when he ripped off a side mirror and tried to enter a police cruiser, Conklin said. Travis returned to the house and died inside.
Conklin estimated Travis to be in his 20s, weighing close to 200 pounds.
The police captain also said this isn’t the first interaction his officers have had with Travis – the chimp escaped in 2003 and “wreaked havoc” on the streets of Stamford for a couple of hours.
In 2005, a different chimp escaped from California’s Animal Haven Ranch and chewed off a man’s nose and genitals.
During an interview after that attack, wildlife expert Jeff Corwin told CNN’s Anderson Cooper that chimpanzees are “absolutely powerful.”
“It’s often said that an adult chimpanzee weighing in at 150 pounds is three to seven times stronger than a human being,” Corwin said.
“The thing about chimpanzees is, we sort of look at them through our rose-colored cultural glasses of the cute little chimp in the ‘Tarzan’ movie. Those are very young chimps. Chimps grow up, they become very powerful. They are very complex in their behavior. They have a whole range of emotions, including violence and anger.”
Yeah, spiking the fuckin thing’s tea with Xanax probably wasn’t the greatest idea either.
latest reports are now saying that the owner is taking back that statement. She is claiming that she never did give it xanax. BS! She is soooo fucked!
they will drug test the fucking thing and she will be put in jail
If she decided to slip it in it’s teat that day, chances are she’s done it before.
It must of been funny watching the cops try and shoot it, 1/2 the shots probably missed.
But srsly, people think these things are “cute”, they are more like a time bomb it seems. Horrible thing that happened though.
monkey was a beast. It was stabbed and shot multiple times, but It was still able to walk back in the it’s owner’s house, and get back in his cage before he died.
she let the thing sleep in her bed every night, who the fuck would do that
Darwinism.
Lol @ homotron deleting his avy/sig.
I heard about this on 96.3 today…
I guess the friend had 7 hours of surgery just to keep her alive…shes stable but still hasto go through motr surgery’s…thats messed up
Why the fuck would she feed it Xanax?
It was ‘rambunctious’
I for one find it hilarious that the woman screaming in the background sounds exactly like a chimp.
its a fucking wild anmial what do you want, and they throw there shit around
Any vid of what happened? Wtf…
