Chimpanzees, or Pan troglodytes, are endangered animals found commonly in forests, savannah woodlands, and grassland-forest mosaics. Chimpanzees are extremely intelligent and social animals, just like us humans, and share 98% of our genes. Even though chimpanzees spend a large portion of their lives on trees, they are also able to walk on land with either two or four limbs. Chimpanzees often use tools, such as sticks to fish termites and leaves to drink water. Illegal wildlife trade (poaching) and diseases such as ebola harm the population of these animals. In the wild, male chimpanzees weigh around 90 to 200 pounds and are 28 to 33 inches tall while females weigh around 66 to 170 pounds and are 30 to 36 inches tall. The lifespan for chimpanzees is 40-50 years in the wild and 50-60 years in captivity.
