Just one look at this picture and you can see.....
(A) how nutty this woman had to be to sleep and who knows what else with this thing as
(B) the sheer enormous size of it alone suggests any chance of subduing this thing in any crisis would be practically impossible, without a 30 odd 6 or a magnum handgun that is, which was ultimately done obviously and should have been killed by her, having this 350 lb animal schlepping around her house and bedroom unarmed was nuts in the first place. This animal was far from a cute little chimp.
Here's the recording of the friendly "little monkey" in full rage again in case you missed it this past week.
The first line of the story from Saturday's NY Daily News says it all for Travis and most humans:
The Banana doesn't fall far from their trees. We had a full post rundown with all videos on this freakshow earlier in the week here by the way..
Mom of crazed chimpanzee, Travis, also shot dead during rage in 2001:
New York Daily News The banana doesn't fall far from the tree.
Travis, the crazed ape shot dead after chewing off a Connecticut woman's face, suffered the same fate as his mother, the Daily News has learned.
Travis' mom, Suzy, was gunned down in 2001 by a teenager after she and two other primates escaped their Missouri ranch and wreaked havoc, sources and experts told The News.
Suzy's death captivated the tiny town of Festus and led to a trial that ended with the conviction of the chimp killer, Jason Coats, 18.
"We all hoped that would be the end of the operation, but it was not," April Truitt, founder of a Kentucky-based sanctuary, the Primate Rescue Center, told The News.
The bizarre incident in April 2001 began when the trio of apes broke out of Mike and Connie Casey's compound, the Missouri Primate Foundation. In addition to running a business that supplied simians for parties, the couple bred and sold chimps, sources say.
After the escape, Suzy, 28, and her two buddies ambled down a road and ended up outside Coats' home.
What happened next is unclear.
Coats and his friends claimed that the ape gang attacked their car and then charged the teens when they tried to flee.
Suzy then went after Coats' dog.
"It turned into something crazy: a big old dog-and-monkey fight like nothing I ever saw in my life," Coats' friend, Kenny Rike, told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
Coats eventually made it inside his house, retrieved a shotgun and shot Suzy to save the lives of his friends and dog, he said.
But several neighbors testified that Suzy was gunned down only after she had been hit with tranquilizer darts and appeared nearly unconscious.
A jury convicted Coats of misdemeanor animal abuse. He was sentenced to 30 days in jail.
Coats could not be reached Friday, but a poster identifying himself as Jason Coats commented on several media-outlet Web sites after the Connecticut mauling.
"Instead of allowing myself or one of my friends [to] be subject to such a horrible attack as this at the hands of a chimp, I shot the chimp first, and for doing so ... I was painted as a 'sadistic future serial killer,'" the poster wrote.
"Even thou [sic] I feel I've been done wrong and misjudged ... I'd much rather be a felon than be dismembered like this poor woman in Conn."
Connie Casey, who now runs the ranch by herself, did not return calls.
Travis came from the Missouri breeder, but at the time of his mother's death, he was already in the care of Sandy Herold, a Stamford woman who raised the ape as her son.
In a now-infamous attack, Travis went berserk Monday, brutally mauling Herold's friend, Charla Nash, 55.
Nash has been transferred to the Cleveland Clinic, the hospital where doctors performed the nation's first successful facial transplant.
She was in critical but stable condition Friday.
