Since being posted to Instagram, the video has made its way to Twitter, Facebook and Reddit too, collecting millions of views in the process.
“Lol I laughed so hard at this. I also love the part where the dog looks over at the left chimp in a ‘you need to chill’ type of way,” wrote one person in response to the video. “It always amazes me how ‘almost’ human chimps are,” another added, while a third wrote: “That is so funny and cute.”
However, some have also criticised the behaviour of the chimpanzees as unnatural, pointing out that wild animals are not supposed to act this way.
“I do not trust those chimps. They belong in the wild… Chimps are not pets,” said one person.
