"Urban expansion and hunting have pushed chimpanzees, humanity’s closest
relative in the animal kingdom, into shrinking islets of wildness, top
experts said Tuesday after a three-day meeting in Germany.
All four sub-species of the African primate are threatened with
extinction, with at least one — the western chimpanzee — declining in
number by more than 80 percent over three generations."
