African Animals Chimpanzees are very intelligent great apes that are closely related to humans. They live in a variety of environments in western and central Africa. Chimps live in small, stable groups (called communities or unit groups) of about 40-60 chimps. They are an endangered species, since the forests they live in are cut down and used for farm land. Chimpanzees often use tools in the wild. They use sticks to get ants and termites to eat and to scare away intruders. They also use chewed-up leaves like a sponge to sop up water to drink. Anatomy: Chimpanzees have very long arms (longer than the legs), and a short body covered with black hair (except on the face, fingers, palms, armpits, and bottoms of their feet). Adults have a short, white beard. Chimps range from 2 - 4 ft (0.7 - 1.2 m) tall.. Diet: Chimpanzees are omnivores (they eat both plants and meat). They forage for food in the forests during the day, eating leaves, fruit, seeds, and other plant material. They also eat termites, ants, and small animals (they have even been known to eat young monkeys).African Safari holiday adventures in Kenya &Tanzania I have been on a number of African Safari’s. Some I have organised my self using a hire rental car and the other with a tour company. There are lots of airlines that will get you to Africa, British Airways, South African Airways, Virgin Airlines to name just a few. To get cheaper tickets try to plan eleven months in advance. That is when long haul tickets are first released. The first batch are normally snapped up by travel agents like expideia.com or ebookers.com. Book with them. The later you leave it the more expensive the tickets become. When should you go. Autumn or spring is the best time if you are heading for South Africa as the grass and foliage is not to thick and you can see more game. For Kenya and Tanzania September to December. Organised Tanzania safaris will take you to Arushia National Park which is a game reserve in an old volcano and then head off down the scarp slope of the African Rift Valley and then up the other side to the famous Serengeti. You will more than likely spend a few nights under canvas as Tanzania has not built many Safari lodges. |
