Chimps Drink Wine in Wild

According to a new study, chimpanzees in the wild enjoy wine.

Researchers discovered that the chimps seek out raffia palms because they have tree sap that naturally ferments into booze.

Villagers in Guinea use containers to harvest the sap, but sometimes the chimps raid the containers when no one is around.

And, the chimps get crafty with their wine tasting, using a folded leaf like a cup to drink from the containers.

It’s understandable that a chimp would want to unwind after a long day of swinging from branch to branch in the jungle, so don’t judge. (Palm Beach Post)
