    I just read that those 14g of ethanol is an equivalent to 0,33L lager. Daily drinking is still alcoholism - get your life together, chimpanzees.

      14 g it’s nearly exactly 1 US standard drink

    It’s not just chimps or alcohol

    Recreational drug use in animals

    With the state of their habitat, who can blame them?

    I wonder if a chimp would drink a seltzer with me
