So, you think those hippos are dangerous?  They aren't the only African animals that can cause grievous bodily harm to the unwary.  Witness the mandrill.

Don't cheese off a mandrill or he'll go ape-slag on your boxy exterior.

Watch and thank your lucky rabbit's foot you're not in Africa.

pointed out, make that a chimp instead of a mandrill.  Male mandrills have those really colorful snouts this chimps lack.  Also, check this site out: Burning Safari.

Great little cartoon, and yeah- Never piss off a chimp! ;)

Love the robots' ship's design, too- Not your usual "flying saucer"!

I think the idea of a self-ambulatory Polaroid camera is not new, though, and something similar was done for a Wallace & Grommet short, as well.

You're right.  That's a chimp, not a mandrill or other baboon.  The snout's all wrong, for one.  Thanks. :)

The ship certainly has an alien bus vibe to it, that's for sure.  Although they really should have a mechanic check the engine as it seems prone to blowing up. :p

A walking camera is probably not new, but then neither are vengeance-crazed apes. :p

Nope, those ion-drip fusion engines, efficient as they may be, may drip their ions, but don't handle being dropped...or smashed down to the ground, in this case. :P

And nope- From Tarzan's apes onwards, angry primates have been a staple of entertainment. :P Nothing new about them at all. :P

And irate Earth primates really know how to trash stuff.  Naturally, that's not counting those pesky shaved monkey humans, either. :p

People often don't really understand just how strong apes are.  For example, gorillas can out-muscle a Marine, but we do get our compensations.  Probably the one that would make a male gorilla the most envious is our Polyphemus.  Of all the primates, a human male's genitals are by far the biggest in relation to body size (to compare, hold up a pencil; that's roughly the size a gorilla's got).  In short, humans are "hypers" in real life.

They make up for it with bananas, as their phallic symbol... ;) *dodges a few spent peels*

No wonder apes have a-peel.  Just as long as they don't slip up. ;p
