Escape of Burundi chimps.

In 1999 there were 22 chimpanzees that escaped from a national reserve in Burundi, Africa. They figured out how to intellectually pick the lock on a gate that they were kept in by using sticks to unlock the gate from the inside. The 22 chimps went on a killing spree, murdering 12 people from the Masai village. 9 males and 3 females were killed ( 3 children ). They were so powerful that they even managed into a car of Damasai and break out the windows of his car, then viscously dragged out him and his friend msemaji and murdered them with their bare hands. Most of the men and women ended up being eaten while a few were just left to die. 4 other people were also injured in the devastating attack, left with bitten off fingers and stitches that would lead them to lead a dis-functional way of living for the rest of their lives. A woman named Sheshe even lost one of her eyes that was completely ripped out of her eye socket. This proves that wild animals should not be help in captivity, for if they do escape it is not a pleasant encounter with these savage beasts.

I personally believe that nature should be left the way god intended it to be and not let us humans put these animals in captivity. They should be free and able to roam about how they please, not locked away in cages for research and enjoyment.
