Jambo's Itchy Dilemma at Twycross Zoo

Jambo the Hairless chimp from the Twycross Zoo has what looks like an itchy insect bite on his back. He feels the swollen lump, has a quick scratch but then scratches another bite. He does get treated for his dry skin, but as you can imagine with chimps it doesn't last long with all the grooming they do. He moves off and then stops in front of another window before he goes back inside.

Hairless Chimp Jambo, the alpha male was born at Twycross Zoo in England. He has had alopecia, a form of hair loss since his youth. Born on June 9, 1982, he shares the same habitat with Coco his mother, who is the oldest animal at Twycross Zoo. Jambo's siblings from his father's side, Holly (born December 27, 1982) and Jomar (born December 28, 1990), are also in the same habitat. His first son Peter is in neighbouring enclosures.

In November 2018, Jambo lost his ear, possibly due to an accidental fight with his mother. Attempts to reattach it with skin glue failed as he continued to pick on it. In October 2022, he also lost a toe, with the cause unknown but possibly related to fights and agitation during mating season.

In 2018, the chimpanzees received a new habitat called "Chimpanzee Eden." It spans 1,160 square meters and includes two seven-meter-high indoor spaces connected to a large outdoor area with climbing frames and huts.
