Is it legal to own a chimpanzee outside of a zoo or a sanctuary?

this question popped up while i was doing hw and i wasnt sure of the answer! can you help plz?|||check with the state you live in. I have a raccoon and I have come to realize that he is legal in some states, not in others. Sometimes you have to have a permit which I think with a chimp, it would make sense. Just make sure you "jump through the hoops" because they don't usually hesitate to take away your pet if you don't have the proper paperwork.|||In Connecticut, it is currently legal, however, the recent chimpanzee attack has made people begin to question this privilege.





See http://www.rep-am.com/ and search chimpanzee for more information.|||Yes you can own a monkey or chimpanzee with permits
