    Default Panic at German zoo as five chimpanzees create makeshift ladder out of branches



    A great ape escape caused panic in Germany when five clever chimpanzees broke out of their zoo compound, using a ladder they had fashioned together out of tree branches.

    After scaling the wall on Wednesday, the primates were able to walk among the 2,500 visitors to Hanover's Experience Zoo.

    While the chimps were content to taste life on the other side of the fence, a five year old girl and an an elderly man were hurt in the panic as staff hurriedly evacuated the park.

    Hahaha, awesome.

    Does a ladder count as "handcrafted tool"?

    Well, it is a good thing the apes didn't eat anyone. Guess they need a roof.

    Well - guess i'm never going to a zoo again.

    At least not without doing a security assessment first.
