Most introduced (invasive) species are bad for existing communities because more times than not, they do not have natural predators. As a result, these species end up proliferating to a staggering degree and using up/consuming resources that other species in the community would be using. This throws off the balance of the system, decreases biodiversity, and wreaks general havoc.

Chimps are born vaginally, like humans. But chimps have an easier time of "child"birth than humans because chimpanzees have smaller brains. Btw, chimps are alive at birth, just like humans.
