what is up with them? -Unprecedented Cross-Species Interaction Documented in Congo Basin: Chimpanzee Troop Engages in Apparent Penguin Relocation and Care ​KANGA BASIN, CONGO – [Date] – Researchers operating in the Congo Basin have documented a remarkable and never-before-seen behavioral event: a troop of chimpanzees is actively engaged in the relocation and apparent care of a group of penguins. ​Field observations and game trail camera footage confirm that the chimpanzees removed at least 30 penguins from the shoreline and transported them back to their forested habitat. The phenomenon suggests an attempt at cross-species domestication or highly organized relocation efforts. ​"This is unlike anything we've ever seen," stated a lead researcher for the project. "All 30 penguins are currently accounted for, and the troop appears intent on keeping them together. We are closely monitoring the situation."
