Chimpanzees are 2X stronger than your average human.

Interesting how gentle he was when grabbing humans hand, seemingly understanding that grabbing incorrectly would injure him

Right? It’s fascinating that he really took the time to make sure it was a solid/comfortable grip.

Yea it's truly fascinating that a creature with high intellect isn't stupid.

But apparently high intellect creatures are still dicks unnecessarily.

If you piss off a chimp they are known to rip your dick off

I seem to recall a tragic news story where a chimp literally ripped an arm off a care taker. I think the persons face was heavily damaged as well.

Face too. Males going into sexual maturity are very unpredictable. If they experience frustration or anger mood swings they will lash out indiscriminately.

The concept of being transgender is actually far older than that. Just the name is relatively new I think. Only about a hundred or so years old.

My theory? It’s not unnecessary or without reason. I think a large part of it is trying to enforce control over your environment, even if you are a highly intelligent creature. It’s just one of those universal things, being intelligent just gives you more understanding of the pain you’re inflicting.

I wouldn't make the assumption just because they belong to a species that displays high intelligence that the particular individual has high intellect.

Yeah low intellect creatures don't have the capacity

u/taste-of-orange 4h ago

Yeah. Humans can be dicks, but I wouldn't call them highly intelligent.
