Zoo celebrates birth of world's rarest chimpanzee
The new chimpanzee has bonded well with its mother and the rest of the troop, Chester Zoo says
Chester Zoo said the birth was a "small but vital boost" to the global population of the species which is "under huge threat" in the wild. "Mum ZeeZee and her new arrival instantly bonded and she's doing a great job of cradling him closely and caring for him."He said the apes were under huge threat in the wild as a result of hunting for the illegal bush meat trade, diseases spread by humans and extensive habitat loss and forest destruction across West Africa.
