Anita Dembo, an Angola woman has revealed on deathbed that her 12-year-old son is offspring of a human-chimpanzee love affair.
According to reports, the child’s mother allegedly entertained an affair with a chimpanzee that endured for many years during her employment at the Parc national de Cameia where she has worked as a conservation officer since 1998.
She later got pregnant during the affair which resulted in the birth of her son.
Since the woman who is now dead made this revelation, the genetic makeup of the Angolan boy is being disputed by experts.
Although the young boy has become an instant celebrity, many experts dispute the claim that he is the product of the sexual intercourse between a human and a chimpanzee.
“Sexual relationships between humans and chimpanzees are fairly common in the region but this is the first time a pregnancy is officially reported,” said Dr. António Mendes of the Hospital Municipal do Luena.
