Just about done watching #ChimpEmpire from netflix. Honestly one of the better documentaries I've seen about chimps, and I've seen a lot. They don't ham it up too much with extreme stories, everything is pretty grounded. While some narration has to be done by a team of writers they didn't go off the wall. They even show some of the more gruesome / gross things about chimps (chimps so scared they vomit, tearing apart & eating a monkey).

Also I have no clue how the hell they got some of this footage, they appear to be in the thick of some extremely hairy encounters at certain points. Kudos to the entire team behind this production, the chimps of Uganda need all the attention from the world they can get.

Apparently that area has so many researchers in it that the chimps have learned to basically ignore people.
