Character
The Chimpanzees, or "Chimps" for short, is the subtribe/genus that Professor Percy, Dr. Marmalade, and Lord Reginald are part of.

Although highly intelligent, they share the same strong desire for bananas that is typically associated with monkeys, hence why they are so delighted by Sandy's banana peeler invention.
Diet[]
Their only known diet is bananas and the occasional pudding.
Trivia[]
