A male chimpanzee is commonly referred to as a “chimp” or “male chimp.”
Chimpanzees are one of our closest relatives in the animal kingdom, sharing about 98% of their DNA with humans. In a social group, a male chimpanzee plays a vital role, often competing for dominance and breeding rights. They display complex social behaviors and establish hierarchies within their communities. Understanding the terms used for male and female chimpanzees helps in studying their behavior and social structures.
