Who was Lucy The Human Chimp?
Lucy was born in 1964 in a small zoo in Florida.
Just two days after her birth, the chimpanzee was taken from her mother, who was sedated with a tranquillizer-laced cola.
The unsuspecting chimp was handed to scientist Maurice Temerlin and his wife, Jane, who raised the primate as their own daughter.
