Extraordinary tale of scientist parents who adopted a chimpanzee to raise as their baby's SISTER - but bitterly regretted bizarre 'nature versus nurture' experiment on their son after it yielded chilling results

Extraordinary video footage shows how two scientist parents attempted to raise their infant son alongside a chimpanzee as part of a bizarre nature versus nurture experiment in 1931.



Psychologists Winthrop and Luella Kellogg conducted the study on their ten-month-old son Donald and a seven-month-old chimp called Gua at their Florida home.



The couple were attempting to establish if it was possible to educate an ape and teach them to communicate as a human.

Just goes to show that you can be intelligent but have no common sense whatsoever.

What a stupid thing to do to try and raise a wild animal with a child.

There's been enough stories of chimps attacking humans. Why do it?

Now this was a chimp that was raised as a baby of the family. He lived in the house with the family, but still he attacked.
