Chimpanzee Attack


Travis the chimpanzee, a veteran of TV commercials, was the constant companion of a lonely Connecticut widow who fed him steak, lobster and ice cream. He could eat at the table, drink wine from a stemmed glass, use the toilet, and dress and bathe himself.

The 200-pound animal viciously mauled a friend of his owner before being shot to death by police.

  1. I heard the 911 call today on the radio and it's terrifying. The woman was begging them to shoot the monkey, and it was like her kid! but you can hear the monkey in the background yelling and going crazy. holy crap... so sad and messed up and freaking crazy.
