Only if he had 800 rounds.
Chimpanzee shot with what, I wonder?

On the news they provided the audio (from the officer's radio?) and you could hear 3 gunshots.

If she gave the chimp xanax it probably just flipped out because it needed a fix... Medicated chimps... This world would be a better place if we would stop trying to dope everything up to be "normal"...

its bad enough there is never a cop when you need one. Now a cop shows up and its the cop who aint got a 12 gauge in his car what are the odds.
When I first heard this story, I was thinking, "Chimps get 200 pounds?!" I had no idea. I always thought they were those dorky looking things with Obama ears. 200 lbs is a pretty damn big monkey.
That's it...I need to "google" these things and update myself on the "overrated primates."

I wouldn't be suprised to hear that the chimp and his owner were lovers.The chimp was prob. mad because of a lovers quarrell.

What I don't understand is why people seem to think they can domesticate higher primates. Man has been trying to domesticate his own species for thousands of years. If it worked we wouldn't have crazed crack heads running the streets, and overcrowded prisons.
What makes these people think they can domesticate a tool using primate that is more powerful, less intelligent, and foreign enough that we can't understand how they think, much less know what they are thinking.
I think chimps are great animals, and like elephants and dolphins, should be left alone in their natural habitat.
As far as how to stop one, I'd want the heaviest caliber I could get, and armor plated underwear. Male chimps are known for emasculating their victims if they get the chance. It's no accident when they bite their victim's testicles off!

statistics favor that chimp was popped with a .40.
Maybe even the PETA dorks will recognize that even with animal attacks, the cops are TOO FAR away to protect them.

Actually, you're not far off. There's been a couple updates to the story concerning that... (and this is actually on-topic). Apparently, the chimp and his owner were a little closer than most people realized (even bathing together and sleeping together). The supposed reason the chimp attacked was because it felt it's "mate" was being threatened. So, the chimp acted in self-defense, because in chimp-world, that's what you do when a strange girl-chimp acts how this lady did. So, the chimp was going acting out his own version of the castle (banana-tree?) doctrine.
I also believe there was an article that said it was an M&P shooting .40SW.
This chimp shooting kinda adds a new dimension to all the threads you see on gun forums about "what gun/caliber to use on a Sasquatch?" I imagine a Bigfoot (if they exist) would be a little more robust than a 200lb. chimp. And a gorilla? Fugedaboutit!

Something that could possibly be gained from this is impetus to allow "zoo carry" in states where carrying in a zoo is forbidden. Demonstrating the utter ferociousness of an uncaged primate (or any animal) should be enough to make a legislator aware of the benefit to lawful carry of firearms in a zoo.
If my grandfather ever wanted to get my attention, all he had to do is start a story with,
"Did I ever tell you about the time I was whooped by a chimp?"
Regardless, the whole theory of 9mm vs. .45 would definitely be put to the test here. They're strong and stupid, possibly the worst possible combination. All the crack-head stories we tell are nothing more than someone on a drug that makes them artificially stronger and stupider.
