According to this site http://animaldiversity.ummz.umich.edu/site/accounts/information/Pan_troglodytes.html
They don't have any natural predators, except us. Chimpanzees are hunted as food by humans in many parts of their range. There is no direct evidence of predation on chimps by other animals, although there are some sympatric predators that are likely candidates for taking an occasional chimpanzee––especially young ones. These are leopards (Panthera pardus), pythons (Phython sabae), and martial eagles (Poleamaetus bellicosus). (Goodall, 1986; Jones et al., 1996)
Of course it also blames brewerys for chimp attacks on humans 
Chimpanzees have been known to prey upon young humans when the opportunity arises, although the propensity for this behavior is closely related to the presence of waste from human beer-making facilities. Chimpanzees eat these attractive, fermented leavings and become intoxicated, making them more likely to become aggressive.
Damn dirty apes. |

Chimp. A chimp will rip that fucker's balls of and eat them in front of it. Then it would rip it's face off and eat that too. But if we're talking a Red Dawn Wolverine, then they would win because AK47/RPG/etc beats chimp every time. QFTMFT Chimps are SCARY! Even through the show Monster Quest is dumb, check out the one on Killer Chimps. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M8e9GldATqc OK, HTF do you embed videos?! |

So if chimps are so bad ass how come they weren't the top dogs before we showed up? You never hear of them called "King of the Jungle." Humans are weak Humans have opposable thumbs There you have it. RIF, I asked about before humans were on the scene, not why we are the top of the food chain. |
