I read the theory is that chimps brought in from the wild into loose captivity have lost mentoring by older males or females and are basically rogue, similar to what is happening with elephant herds.

To sum up: Guy went behind the safety fences; these are previously-abused animals; it’s horrible what happened to him...

Honestly, if I lived such a patronizing life as most of these chimps, I would freak the fuck out, too.

That is like asking why prisoners fight! If you lock something up and keep it out of it’s natural habitat (or worse exploit it for entertainment or torture it) it is going to snap one day and attack. Happy animals don’t attack - end of!
