No. Not usually anyway. Chimps are omnivores, meaning they eat both meat and plants, though mostly plants.

This is why you see monkeys mixed with gorillas in zoos but not with chimps.

When they are old enough, baby chimps are taught how to hunt for food, how to avoid predators, how to find water, etc. Baby chimps also learn the social hierarchy, such as how to show respect for older chimps, proper ways to show affection for others, and how to handle unfriendly chimps (how to deal with conflict).
