  1. Thanks for sharing this photo. Note that in JungleDragon, members are asked to include basic details as part of the photo, therefore please consider the following tip(s):

    - You did not share any location info. You are asked to at least share the country in which the photo was taken, since this helps in identifying the species. You can set the country using the "Set country" button. Even better is to geotag the photo, which you can do using the "Geotag this photo" button.

    - You did not identify the species on the photo. To identify the species, use the "Identify species" button. If you do not know the exact species, please share what you do know such as the location and family of species so that others can assist in exact species identification.

    Note that by sharing your photo with more complete details, it will show up in the species browser, the global wildlife map and in search. It helps people find your photo much better, plus it delivers a far more educational photo. Check out our photo sharing tutorial for more information:

  2. This chimpanzee looks to be hairless? OK.. indeed, chimpanzees can be hairless. Incredible the musculature that you don't normally see. It makes you realize more how very much like us that they are. Posted 10 years ago, modified 10 years ago
  3. Very true. This could be due to a condition called alopecia.. Visit the below link for more details

The common chimpanzee, also known as the robust chimpanzee, is a species of great ape. Evidence from fossils and DNA sequencing show both species of chimpanzees are the sister group to the modern human lineage.
