Chimps have truly begun to pose a credible threat to our national security.
The study of a Swedish chimp named Santino, released yesterday by the journal Current Biology, would seem to prove the latter true. For the past eleven years, the journal reports, Santino has been stockpiling rocks in his island compound at the zoo in Furuvik, north of Stockholm, rocks that he then unleashes in a fury at the human visitors who come to view him and his ape friends. Santino doesn't ever attack the other chimpanzees, Lund University Ph.D. student Mathias Osvath, who wrote the study, told the AP. Only the humans. Fortunately, Santino has extremely poor aim. For now.

to study chimpanzees must be funny, not "human condition" or whatever to worry about...!
