A young man who works at the Jane Goodall Institute Chimpanzee Eden in South Africa was attacked by two males chimpanzees at the institute. There are two fences separating visitors from the area where chimps roam but for unknown reasons, the young man went over one of the fences. The two chimps then also went over their fence, grabbed the young man by the legs and dragged him under the fence into the chimp area. The young man had done graduate work at the institute and was familiar with handling chimpanzees. Some more details can be obtained from the following the USA Today article: http://www.usatoday.com/news/world/story/2012-06-30/south-africa-chimp-attack/55948940/1?csp=34news
