Listen, after the way that these humans treated these poor, traumatized animals, they shouldn't be reimbursed. Human life is NOT any more important than the lives of these chimps and they must be seized out of there ASAP, before they are killed at the hands of these merciless bastards. This is the best show! I'm in complete adoration of Eugene Cussons and his generous, kind-hearted nature. I wish more people like HIM would exist on this planet. People like him and Steve Irwin, my greatest hero.

Is this show still on?

I loved watching it.

Cussons could've just sat on his riches, but instead dedicated himself to saving these poor animals.

Kudos to Eugene and his group!

@fifthcirclesurfer U need to chillax dude! I've watched this show a lot and i've seen him with plenty of chimps... I think you're being the A hole here. This guys done more for chimps than you ever will.

[fifthcirclesurfer]

the guy is such a moron,he has to be in every scene.I tryed to watch this show cause i love chimps,but this a-hole put himself on camera more then the chimps. a little advice you egomanic,maybe the show would of been more popular and would still be on if you made it about the dam monkeys and not you

[BindyD123]

It is a shame that Animal Planet canceled this show. It has been my favorite since it started. There are reruns at 7:00 am for those who are interested.

You can also go to Animal Planet and write them asking to not cancel. I guess they are more interested in Palin garbage and animail then educating the public.

[producerbigsouth]

@cupressiana85 Poor traumatized kind of reminds me of slavery. I dont think you can save any animal until you save people eugene is no hero in my book. Taking the chimp away from one artificial world in trade for another is still the same corrupt system of slavery. Are the chimps free in a world with barb wire fences and cages no the circus has been traded for a sideshow on animal planet but they replace the name with eden to make it seem like a safe haven lol

[CDLver]

Animal Planet, you canceled Escape To Chimp Eden but gave Sarah Palin a show on hunting in Alaska?

I won't be watching Animal Planet ever again!

[D0mIN1cAnO]

Guys help me im looking for a rock song i heard from one of the chimp eden commercial* It starts out like an accoustic and then breaks down into the rock

[laurens890]

Look at humans, the worst and wildest animal possible. Chimps are very intelligent creatures and can be thankfull. you say chimps are dumb animals only thinking of food, but that is so not true.

I LOVE EUGENE CUSSONS!

[MtWhiteCld]

I love this show it was changed to Thursday but wasnt on today.

Anyone know when it starts back up?

[quigonnjon]

kill all chimps!!!

[CDLver]

Fabulous show, Animal Planet!

I am loving the new season!

[mcolleenbutler]

i enjoy this show. its funny, sad and very educational. i hope it stays on the air! if you are going to drop a show, pick one of the animal cops shows. (just one) go get them eugene!!!!!!

[SynysterGates400]

Wow. This is such a pitiful show. LOL XD!!!

[opiates]

Well people that do that don't deserve to live. Especially if if the animal is simply minding its own business. They deal with more shit on a daily basis than most of us ever will in a year.

[checkers37]

well isn't weird that we know what we're doing when we're doing it? and animals act like animals.

when they want to protect themselves they can get aggressive... but people kill animals because they want to torture. .__.

[opiates]

While it's nice that humans are helping these animals, always remember that they're just that... animals. And they can turn on you at any second. Especially chimps because for some dumb reason they feel the need to "dominate" and be in control over others and will have no problem hurting you with their 7 fold strength. So never assume that because you're helping them that they'll be grateful about it. Chimps are usually friendly... until you run out of food.

[newzealandiscool]

Chimpz rock!!! Respect them!

[originof8]

Great stuff! Down with chimps used in entertainment.. please...WATCH MY VIDEO _____Fall Out Boy, Thanks For The Memories - REMIX -

poor monkeys ;

[checkers37]

I LOVE THIS SHOW... <33 i really like monkeys and when i see people torturing them, its just sad, animals are like humans. They can breath, they can learn and they have FEELINGS! when u torture animals its like torturing humans. They aren't any different from us, why dont people learn this? idk, some humans are more dangerous than animals.. -sigh- i love animals and im glad that "some" people are helping these chimps and other animals =)

[critterfreek82]

Ain't that the truth.
