There is such a chimpanzee in the United States, which was adopted by humans three days after birth, but suddenly changed his temperament one day after 15 years.
Gnawing the master's friend beyond recognition. Why do chimpanzees that have been fed since childhood attack humans?
At 3:40 p.m. on February 16, 2009, the Stanford Police Department in Connecticut, USA, received a police call claiming that a chimpanzee had tore off her friend's face and that the alarm was none other than Sandra, the owner of the chimpanzee.
When the police arrived at the scene, a 180-pound chimpanzee was lying on the ground and frantically nibbling on a woman.
The woman lay lifeless on the ground, unrecognizable, her clothes torn and almost naked. The entire upper body was submerged in blood, the skin on the face was pulled abruptly and dragged in half, the hands were also scattered by the fragments gnawed by the chimpanzees, and the finger fragments were scattered, and they had long been gone.
The perpetrator, the chimpanzee, heard the sound of the police car and immediately rushed out of the house, and it also tried to open the police car and destroy the door and rearview mirror.
The police struggled to pull out their pistols, but instead of the slightest fear, the chimpanzee opened its bloody mouth and exposed its blood-stained teeth in an attempt to attack the police, who quickly fired a shot, seemingly hitting it, before it fled screaming.
The woman who was attacked was named Chara, a good friend of the hostess, and after Chara was rushed to the hospital, she underwent an operation that lasted up to seven hours.
The attack left Chara without her nose, eyes, lips, hands, and the bones of her facial structure were eaten away by chimpanzees, her brain tissue was severely damaged, and what is more sad is that she can never return to her former beauty.
Despite undergoing one face transplant after another, Charla's face still looks terrifying, what caused the attack?
On the afternoon before the incident, Sandra found that Travis was so excited today that even if he was fed anti-anxiety drugs, he could not calm it.
What she didn't expect was that Travis also ran out of the room with the car keys, which made Sandra very helpless, and could only call Chara for help.
But when Chara arrived at her house to play with Travis, Travis, who weighed 90 kilograms, suddenly turned his sights on her.
Tearing her hand with her teeth, the skin on Chara's hand was instantly bitten and blood flowed, and she directly threw off Travis, but unexpectedly, Travis rushed towards her again and attacked her face,
Sandra, in order to save Chara, desperately stabbed her pet with a kitchen knife; When the police arrived, only Travis, who had a mouth full of blood, and Charla, who was dying and unrecognizable in the room.
After the incident, a reporter interviewed Sandra, after this terrible experience, her friend was severely disfigured, will she still use chimpanzees as pets?
Unexpectedly, her answer was actually yes, Sandra swore that she never regretted raising chimpanzees, because they are the closest animals to humans,
"I'm not a terrible person, and I'm not a terrible chimpanzee," and she doesn't know why it helped things to come this way, but if she had started all over again, she would still choose to keep chimpanzees.
The attack also completely broke Chara's friendship with Sandra. In March 2009, Chara filed a $50 million lawsuit against Sandra.
It wasn't until November 2012 that Chara settled with Sandra's former lawyer and received $4 million in damages. In fact, what makes Chara even more sad is that compared to her disability, her friend Sandra actually cares more about Travis,
Why is Sandra so obsessed with this chimpanzee? Why did Travis go crazy?
Travis, who was adopted by Sandra for $50,000 three days after birth, because Sandra and her husband's daughter died in an accident, and Travis was treated as their own child,
Growing up in crowds, Travis would greet neighbors and play wrestling games with the police, and everyone thought the chimpanzee was fully integrated into human life.
Chara also visits Sandra's house on a regular basis, so she has been friendly with Travis, a chimpanzee, with whom Travis often plays and never puts up a stinking shelf.
But they seem to forget that animals are always animals, and that chimpanzees have a brutal nature in their genes.
In 2003, Travis was an adult, and the Sandra family took it out for a ride, but halfway through, a passerby threw a soda bottle on Travis's head, and Travis was angry,
He immediately opened the door and chased him out, rampage on the road, and constantly harassed nearby vehicles, but the police arrived a few hours later without causing casualties.
This matter has also attracted the attention of the local government,
They solemnly reminded Sandra that Travis is now a fully sexualized adult chimpanzee, if it is in the wild, it may have sex 50 times a day, and the most important thing is that the adult chimpanzee, at least 5 adult strength, his violent tendencies are uncontrollable.
However, Sandra did not listen at all, she always thought that Travis was just naughty, and she continued to pamper it,
So there was the face-eating accident at the beginning,
After that, many people came forward, saying that as early as 1996, they were bitten by Travis, but she called the police, but the police not only did not deal with her, but also helped Sandra speak, which means that Travis's violent tendencies have always been there,
And Sandra may also have been lying to herself all the time, she knows very well that Travis has Lyme disease, which is likely to be the cause of violence,
On the day of the incident, 14-year-old Travis was already 180 pounds, and after lunch, it was emotional, Sandra was also in its teacup, put anti-anxiety drugs for people, perhaps because of the effect of drugs, Travis had a nervous breakdown, did not recognize the acquaintance Chara in front of him, and released his wildness for many years.
Anyway, for whatever reason, the tragedy has happened, and Chara is the real victim. In an interview, Chara said she hopes others will learn from her experience that the violent genes of wild animals can be awakened at any moment.
