Budongo Trail

David

Chimp David climbs in the outdoor section of Edinburgh Zoo's Budongo Trail exhibit

Adopt a chimp!Born: 2 March 1975

Appearance: David is fairly stout and has a grey head and back. 

History and character: David was born at Edinburgh Zoo, and along with Louis, used to be one of the most dominant chimps, keeping the others in line.

He is well respected within the group, and although not the most dominant chimp, he still helps to sort out any disputes. He is a valuable chimp for either Qafzeh or Kindia to have on their side during the dominance dispute, but which one of these candidates he will fully support remains to be seen.
