Successful operation: Grandmother chimpanzee and a cat
Little Mother (Little Mother) - 73-year-old female chimpanzee from the family in the safari park in Lyon County Loksahatchi Florida - considered the oldest chimpanzees living in captivity. Recently, the old woman had surgery to remove the stagger teeth, and "patched" a small wound, possibly caused by young male group. The females of her family carefully plugged the wound with straw, but veterinarians managed to get it all cleaned.
