Chimpanzee Jambo #shorts


via IFTTT Discover the captivating story of Jambo, the remarkable alpha male, born at Twycross Zoo in England on June 9, 1982. With alopecia affecting him since his youth, Jambo stands out among his chimpanzee peers. Join us as we delve into Jambo's intriguing life. Jambo shares his habitat with his daughter Genet, a brown chimp and his mother Coco, the oldest animal at Twycross Zoo, born in 1965. Alongside them are his siblings Holly, born on December 27, 1982, and Jomar, born on December 28, 1990. Their adventures unfold within the same habitat. Jambo's half-brother William, born on June 30, 1982 and Jambo's first son Peter resides in the adjacent enclosure. While Jambo's journey has seen moments of challenge, such as the loss of his ear in November 2018, believed to have occurred accidentally during a group altercation, his resilience shines through. Twycross Zoo made efforts to reattach his ear using skin glue, but unfortunately, Jambo's persistent picking resulted in complete loss. Experience the excitement of the chimpanzees' "Chimpanzee Eden" habitat, a sprawling 1,160 sqm area comprising two seven-meter-high indoor spaces, interconnected with a vast outdoor site featuring impressive climbing frames and huts. Follow Jambo's captivating tale as he navigates life with hair loss, creating a lasting impact on the Twycross Zoo community and capturing the hearts of visitors worldwide.
