Chimps can be acculturated, meaning they can adopt many aspects of human culture. For instance, one chimp named Lucy was famous for drinking scotch, watching TV, and reading magazines. However, chimps can never truly be domesticated. They begin the process of maturation around the age of 6-8 (being considered adults when they are 13 (females) and 15 (males), respectively). This is when they start to become aggressive and territorial, traits that aid them in their forest habitats. Because of this, they can be extremely unpredictable.

What is the difference between female chimpanzee and chimpanzee?

There's no difference between a "chimpanzee" and a "female chimpanzee" in the way that implies they are separate species or types of animals. A female chimpanzee is simply a chimpanzee that is female. Think of it like this: Chimpanzee: This is the general term for the species Pan troglodytes. It refers to any individual of that species, regardless of their sex. Female chimpanzee: This term specifies the sex of the chimpanzee. It's a chimpanzee that happens to be female, just as a "male chimpanzee" would be a chimpanzee that happens to be male. So, when someone asks "What is the difference between female chimpanzee and chimpanzee?", it's a bit like asking "What's the difference between a dog and a female dog?" A female dog is a dog. All female chimpanzees are chimpanzees, but not all chimpanzees are female (some are male). The term "chimpanzee" encompasses both sexes.
