Chimpanzees spent most of there time up in trees jumping from one branch to another branch.Baby Chimpanzees spent there first few months with there mothers following everywhere as they learn from them how to eat and the way they act. In the wild chimps get to be 50 years of age and weight about 120 pounds. The amount of chimpanzees living in the wild has reduced a lot. Today there is only about 200,000 chimps living in the 21 nations of Africa. Chimpanzees are related to gorillas, orangutans, monkeys, and believe it or not even humans. We all fall in the ape categorie. When chimpanzees walk they walk in there four legs using their two legs and two arms this technique is called knuckle walking. Their weight is supported by the soles of their feet and the back joints of their feet.
