[edit] 80 year old chimp? --Not likely

The recent addition to the article that Cheetah the chimp from the Tarzan films lived to be 80 seems to be entirely bogus--there's no documentation (it conviently "burned up" in a fire) and the reference is just Hollywood gossip. It's like saying humans live to be 140. 63.192.100.101 (talk) 22:30, 28 December 2011 (UTC)

[edit] Where Section on Distribution?

Where is the section discussing distribution?--Halqh حَلَقَة הלכהሐላቃህ (talk) 13:11, 6 January 2012 (UTC)

[edit] Bonobo: there and not there

The article clearly states that it is referring to both Chimpanzee strains including the Bonobo. It also clearly states that hierarchy and behavors are very different. When one reads the social structure and other sections, however, only the common Chimpanzee is mentioned and the Bonobo is absent. Given the extreme differences in the two, perhaps we should discuss both in each section? Significant studies on Bonobo behavior have been done and can be used as citations. This would seem prudent since the article is about 'Pan' and no longer specifically Chimpanzees. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 205.211.133.129 (talk) 17:09, 9 February 2012 (UTC)

[edit] Edit request on 18 February 2012

It seems that someone may have hacked this page as it only redirects to this extremely offensive link "http://pump.pp4l.me/proof.php." Please fix this. Thank you.
