Little "Nap", the Napoleon of the Chimpanzee World, 1915

Little Nap was the “Napoleon of the Chimpanzee World.” This little chimpanzee, a female, was dressed and posed to make fun of Napoleon Bonaparte in the early 1900s.




Napoleon was a French military leader who conquered most of Europe in the 1800s. He was described as shrewd and extremely ambitious. He was also hated in many parts of the world, which is why the chimpanzee was dressed up to make fun of him. Unfortunately, Napoleon Bonaparte did not live long enough to see his chimp twin. He died in 1821 at the age of 51.
