That depends on what you mean by "mean." Chimps are wild animals, so their behavior is obviously going to conflict with what is considered normal decorum by human standards. Males are very territorial, meaning they are willing to harm any individual that they deem a threat. They have even been known to kill and eat the babies of their own species. However, they are gentle to those within their family units. Chimps have built in social mechanisms for reconciliation. That is, if they get into fights, they will eventually mend the rift through hugging, kissing, food sharing, and grooming. Bonobos, a close cousin of the Chimp, even have non-reproductive sex in order to calm nerves.
