Dr. Kimberley Hockings and his team from Oxford Brooks University conducted 17 years study and have found wild chimpanzees were drinking alcohol made from sap of palm tree in Guinea, West Africa. People in the area make alcohol drink from sweet, white sap of palm tree. They attach the plastic container on the palm tree to collect the sap and alcohol is made naturally. The animals collected and drunk alcohol from the plastic container which was around 7% strength. It is proof that not only the humans, animals like to drink alcohol as well.
