Biology. Lucy the chimp.

In biology class we learned about a chimp named Lucy. Lucy got taken away from her chimp parents at a very young age by Maurice and Jane. They decided to do an experiment on Lucy to see that if she was raised as a human then would Lucy start growing the habits that humans. What do u know?, Lucy did start to grow the habits of a human.

After a while Lucy was acting so much like a human that she couldn't care for herself. She relied on humans to give her food. she made tea, got dressed, and did exactly what a regular human girl would do. After a while lucy got out of hand and started destroying furniture and everything else in he way.

The house sitter decided to take Lucy back to Africa with all of the other chimps that couldn't care for themselves.She stayed there for a year with them and then after lucy still wouldn't take of herself then she decided to leave Lucy alone with the other chimps. The care giver did come back one time, but the second time she cam back all that was left of Lucy were her hands.

The one thing that i took away from this story is that animals should not be taken out of their natural habitats and if there is a need to take them out then they should not be returned to their natural habitats. Lucy is a very good example of what can happen to animals when you do stupid expirements on them.
