I'm sure you guys heard about this, but I actually didn't hear about this until today, when a friend told me about her appearance on the Oprah Winfrey show. Apparently, the woman's face and hands were eaten off by this giant chimpanzee. So, I looked her up her Oprah appearance on YouTube. WOW!! She is truly an inspiration.

As for the woman who owned the chimp, she should definitely be held responsible in some way. Apparently, the woman had become very close with the chimp after the death of her husband and child. Very sad, but even so, wild animals should not be kept as pets. She should have known better.

If what is written here is true, this is truly disturbing. Why do some people insist on treating their animals like people?!
