The chimpanzee also known as simply the chimp, is a species of great ape native to the forest and savannah of tropical Africa. Like us, chimps are highly social animals, care for their offspring for years and can live to be over 50. In fact, chimpanzees are our closest cousins. The main differences between a monkey and a chimpanzee include their family type, appearance, diet, intelligence, and ways of communication.
