Lincoln Park Zoo scientists study chimpanzees through behavior and health monitoring, voluntary tool-use studies, and computer touchscreen sessions. In the wild, chimpanzees use tools to gather food, such as manipulating thin sticks to “fish” termites from their mounds. Female chimpanzees sometimes migrate into new groups during adolescence while males remain with their birth group. Offspring are dependent on their troop for up to six years. Males establish a hierarchy that influences breeding, but mating is fluid between a variety of partners. They live in large “fission-fusion” societies, frequently splintering into smaller groups and re-gathering. These omnivores feed primarily on fruits, insects, and small animals, including other primates.
