Duck was his name, the chimpanzee who attacked his owner's daughter. Duck lived on an animal rescue farm that housed mostly horses. This KTLA news article did not say how he came to live there. He had not attacked anyone in his family in all of 17 years. All of a sudden, he attacks the daughter and bites her, in the stomach and arms and back, sending her running for cover to the basement of her home.
Why did he wait so long to show such violent aggression? I don’t believe he hid this clearly violent behavior for almost two decades. I think he developed mental illness and didn’t remember his handlers daughter and saw her as a threat, and that’s why he attacked her.
I don’t claim to be a biologist or any such expert! I simply believe the known scientific fact that humans and chimpanzee’s share the most DNA in our genome than any other animal species.

"Chimpanzees are genetically closest to humans, and in fact, chimpanzees share about 98.6% of our DNA. We share more of our DNA with chimpanzees than with monkeys or other groups, or even with other great apes! We also both play, have complex emotions and intelligence, and a very similar physical makeup." Chimps, Humans and Monkeys: What's the Difference?

Sadly, this isn’t the first time a family’s pet Chimpanzee has attacked it. Years ago, a woman called her friend to come and help her with her pet Chimpanzee but that turned out to be tragic for the friend whom the chimp viciously attacked and mauled. He mauled her face and hands off… Read more about that story by clicking the link below in the Similar Story section:
