Comments:Large chimpanzee shot and killed by police in US after it attacks woman, officers

No matter how many years the animal has lived with these people and was believed to be domesticated, it honestly doesn't matter. The thing is still a wild animal with instincts imprinted in its brain from the generations before it. It's very sad but people have to draw a line with certain types of pets to keep in your household or around family members. 198.16.3.247 J.R.

This could all have been avoided if the woman hadn't kept a LARGE 200-POUND CHIMPANZEE in her HOUSE... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 204.63.178.1 (talk) 15:40, 18 February 2009 (UTC)

i think that these owners of this retarted chimpanze should become more responsible! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.148.29.167 (talk) 23:20, 18 February 2009 (UTC)

And the moral is "You don't mess with wild animals"
Yes, the chimpanzee was a pet, but these animals&mdash;whether pets or fresh from the wild&mdash;retain their instincts; plus, a 140-pounds chimp can easily handle four fit men, never mind a 200-pound chimp vs. a weak woman. I feel sorry for the woman and my prayers go to her and her loved ones. --71.190.95.198 04:40, 20 February 2009 (UTC)

Chimps belong with other chimps in the wild. Nowhere else.

Poor chimp killed the wrong woman. --boo (talk) 20:11, 20 February 2009 (UTC)
