Where’s the abuse? In the miserable, isolated and boring life Toto and other wild animals have in captivity,particularly in entertainment environments.Apes suffer just like humans do in solitary confinement.Thank you ADI!
Poor thing!
where’s the abuse? ???
What a stupid ugly bastard
lets let all the chimps go in south america then they will start there own population.
poor toto. all we could do is watch.
we must change.
Where is the (abuse)?
Las kadenas ke se las pongan los hijo de putas ke se kreen los dueños de estos indefensos animales.
Ke tristeza me da ver un ser ke a de vivir libre ,ke lo tengan enkadenado y parece ke la gente lo vea normal.
there probably was no hitting involved, but the living condition is something else..he’s chained up!!
So sad that it brought tears to my eyes, they are almost human why treat them this way. What have they done wrong? Imprisoned for being different
I can’t stand to watch this bullshit. Only reason I could was because I know where he is now. Toto should have body slamed that guy and took off. What a gental giant. At one point he was rocking/jumping a bit with so much pent up inside. Wanting to jump and run or hell even just be able to fully stretch out and make a bed with grass/limbs. Humans that can do this to a chimp have no heart or soul.
Poor toto
98.6%
what a sad existence for that poor animal,being chained up 24hrs a day..sickining!!
By that same token, mice (m. musculus) also share over 90% of human DNA. So, do we call them 90% human? Is experimenting on mice the same as experimenting on human? Yea, didn’t think so.
Nobody ever said that these or any animals should be locked in a cage. But, no matter how much we may wish it, chimps are NOT human. And your argument is a fallacy.
No animal should be locked in a cage or being used for entertainment. They have over 90 % of human DNA. So is it o.k to put a human in a cage with a chain around their neck and force that human to entertained?
I’ve seen other chimps jump like that though. Ones in zoos and what not.
castrated? why?
btw why is he jumping up and down like that around 6 mins in?
Hahahaha he threw dirt at them.
He looks more like a bonobo, I think.
he’s being abused becuz his cage has nothing to do and he has to sit there everyday every minute of every hour until showtime then it’s back to the cage. i dont care if u put the thumbs down on me. as long as u no the truth behind circuses
There is definately something wrong with your head !!!!
aliveinsd
Humm that chain around his neck is nice huh? …His butt looks raw…Ohh the rocking is known to be a mental problem with chimps and the strange jumping is also. Desperate for some kind of love or contact..
He is either in a cage he can’t stand in or in a fenced yard with trash around it. And that cute jump he is doing is a nervous condition. Maybe it’s better for him to be dead then to live like that for another 50 years.
