Plastic chimp moms and babies

Chimpanzee Mom and Baby Plastic Replica We actually have TWO separate chimpanzee mom and baby replicas.

Mom and Baby Chimp Models Chimps (short for "chimpanzees") remain among the world's most popular animals because humans can easily relate to their looks and behavior. They entertain us with their extremely mobile faces and bodies. We are fascinated by these animals so closely resembling our own species. There are two species of chimp - the common chimpanzee (Pan troglodytes) and the smaller bonobo (Pan paniscus). Both species live in Africa. Chimps are members of the family Hominidae, as are gorillas, orangutans, and humans. Chimpanzees are threatened by population fragmentation, habitat destruction, disease, and persecution by humans.
