CHIMPANZEES 201 



specimens of this race have ever done in captivity. For 

 some reason they never survive long in England or other 

 parts of Europe. This is probably due to some condition 

 of the atmosphere. It cannot be from a difference of 

 treatment. 



I have seen a large number of chimpanzees ; most of 

 them were in captivity ; yet I have seen enough of them 

 in a wild state to gain some idea of their habits and man- 

 ner. Those described will be sufficient to show the mental 

 character of the genus.
