CHIMPANZEES AND HUMANS.
The chimpanzee at the London Zoo and its recently-born baby have had thousands of visitors to see them. People have lined up in queues during the visiting hours. The Zoo authorities have found it impossible to keep to the regulation of allowing only small parties to enter at once. The circumstances have elicited a vigorous protest from Dr C. W. Saleeby. Speaking at the annual meeting of the governors of the Royal Free Hospital, h« said: “ I think it is preposterous that in the Zoo to-day they should be providing chimpanzee _ mothers, alligator mothers, and all kinds of sub-human mothers with fundamental condition! of nutrition and health, which hitherto have been denied to a vast number of the mothers of this country.”
