Anthropoid monkeys feel much closer to us than many other animal species. This is so because of the similar physique and even behavior.
Chimpanzees also have a similar build to humans and we find many people in their behavior. We think we understand ourselves with them, but we forget that we are dealing with a beast. And male chimpanzees have incredible power.
When two male gorillas from the Dutch zoo escaped and this was noticed by the caregivers, they immediately set out in search of them and also informed the visitors at the open institution.
It was feared that the sudden freedom would make the animals so aggressive that they posed a danger to man. They saw no other solution than to shoot the chimpanzees.
Probably due to human negligence, the two animals were able to escape and their freedom became their destiny as well.
