Jill Pruetz, an professor of anthropology, said that she found it "very difficult and quite gruesome to watch" the group of chimpanzees kill a member of their own community and then abuse the animal's dead body.
Let's see now. She found it difficult to watch the group of chimps kill a member their own community.
Professor Pruetz has described how she saw a group of the animals discover the body of a chimp called Foudouko, a former leader of the Fongoli community who had since been exiled for five years and who was probably killed by members of the group. After they came across the dead body, they abused and ate it for nearly four hours, the Iowa State University anthropologist described.
Now, the chimp was "probably killed by members of the group" and she saw the animals "discover the body."
Did she see them kill him or not? Apparently not, but the scientists are acting like she did and trying to figure out why his own group would do that. Also, the younger chimps abused and ate the corpse. Why would they do that to a member of their own community. Maybe, just, maybe, because he hadn't been a member of that community for five years.
