Why chimpanzees resemble human beings.




Chimpanzees are common primates which are found in Kibale National park. The common chimpanzee is also known as the robust chimpanzee. They are covered in coarse black hair and they have a bare face, fingers, and toes, palms of the hands and also the soles of the feet. These characteristics have greatly attracted many chimpanzee trekking safaris to Uganda.
The chimpanzees are mainly found in rain forests and even in wet savannahs and they usually spend equal time on land and in trees, these interesting primates which have attracted many chimpanzee tracking safaris to Uganda do most of their feeding and sleeping in trees.
It’s always thought that humans have some similar characteristics like those of the chimps, and it’s true because these primates mimic like the human being and they always prepare their food before eating it like the human beings. This has attracted many tourists to flood Kibale National Park to have a chimpanzee trek to wonderful animals.
Chimpanzees enjoy company of others like the human beings; this is because they live in groups of 30 to 80 individuals. The groups are made of smaller, flexible groups of just a few animals, perhaps of females and males. Such features have attracted many safaris in Uganda in order to track.
Chimpanzees chew leaves to make them absorbent and then use them as sponge, they always dip them in water and then suck out the moisture, and this shows how the chimps are intelligent like the humans. The chimps use grass stems to push them into the ant hills and then eating the insects inside. A chimpanzee trekking safari to Uganda can expose you to all the unique features of the chimp which resemble those of the human being.
They can easily climb and they are good at building nests high in the trees in order to rest during the day and at night. These nests are constructed in minutes by bending branches, changing them to form a platform and then lining them with the twigs.
