Chimps Found Making Own Weapons to Hunt for Food

Posted by CowboyNeal on from the boards-with-nails dept.

Pojut writes "The Washington Post has an article involving chimps and weapons. Apparently, there have been direct observations of chimps in the west African savannah modifying sticks to create spears. They then use these spears to kill small mammals and eat them. It is the first time that an animal other than a human has been directly observed in crafting a weapon for the purpose of hunting or killing."

    What's next? Strapping bombs on their teenage kids and aiming them at infidels? Or would that be a step back from using spears?

    Pretty soon these chimps will outskill niggers and take over the continent. Would be a desirable change to see them destroy the useless population of AIDS infested and cannibalistic savage niggers.

    If those filthy niggers could take care of themselves we wouldn't have to waste billions of dollars every single year just so they can feed their starving babies.

    1. There is not enough food to go around.
