Chimpanzees sometimes eat, sometimes scream and show their strength to other groups of primates that pass by. That way, they mean who's boss! But even with all the excitement, they are also kind and show a sharp intelligence. They manage to break branches to make tools that help them gather food in the forest and even share tools and food with others in the group.
