Scientists have discovered a group of booze-loving apes who may hold the key to why humans enjoy drinking alcohol.

Experts say they have found the first empirical evidence of “long term and recurrent ingestion of ethanol” among apes in nature.

They observed wild chimpanzees in the town of Bossou in Guinea, west Africa, over 17 years and watched as the primates drank fermented palm sap using a leafy tool as a sponge.

The chimpanzees consumed the alcoholic beverage, often in large quantities, despite an alcohol presence of up to 6.9 per cent ABV - the equivalent of a strong ale, according to a study published by the Royal Society.

I'll have to try that leafy sponge technique.
Drinking my whiskey from a straw is getting boring.

they could have saved millions if they would have just gone to Baltimore in search of drunk monkeys.

imagine if those monkeys got weed instead, they would have stripped the forest of all fauna in no time flat.
