Can you train a monkey to shoot a gun?
Though the footage in the videos is staged, the chimps involved are merely "actors," and the underlying message — that apes could rebel and use the advanced weapons we've developed against us — is extremely unlikely, chimps are indeed capable of being trained to use a diverse armory of weapons.
Can monkeys operate guns?
It would be tough for monkeys to be able to shoot a gun. They are quadrupeds, which means they walk on the palms of their hands, like dogs, not upright like humans. And, their hands don't have the anatomy and dexterity needed to hold and fire a handgun.
Do monkeys use weapons?
Chimpanzees are well-known toolmakers. ... And Stanford's research has shown that chimpanzees are highly efficient hunters of colobus monkeys. "But we've never discovered chimp populations that made the cognitive leap to put those two [skills] together and use weapons to assist in their hunting," Stanford said.
Can elephants use weapons?
Elephants. Elephants show an ability to manufacture and use tools with their trunk and feet. Both wild and captive Asian elephants (Elephas maximus) use branches to swat flies or scratch themselves.
How do swordfish mate?
Swordtails mate very quickly, so if you aren't watching them you could easily miss it. Typically the male will approach the female, often from the side, and may flare his fins in an attempt to impress her. He then swims up close to her and quickly touches her on the underside, near her anal fin, with his gonopodium.

Do any animals make fire?
No other animal uses fire like humans do, in as many ways. However, Australian hawks have been observed deliberately spreading wild fires in order to scare prey into the open. As far as I know, they're the only animal other than humans which have been recorded to intentionally use fire as a tool.
Can crabs use tools?
Even crabs get in on the tool-using act. Their claws are good for manipulating objects, and decorator crabs got their name for a reason. They often "decorate" themselves by covering their bodies with sedentary animals and plants like sea anemones and seaweed.
Do chimps use weapons to fight?
Chimpanzees are capable of making spears to hunt other primates and have been seen using the weapons to apparently kill bushbabies for meat, scientists announced today.
