Do not fill this in! === Grief in animals === Animals have sometimes shown grief for their partners or "friends." When two [[chimpanzee]]s form a bond together, [[Intimate relationship|sexual]] or [[Platonic love|not]], and one of them dies, the surviving chimpanzee will show signs of grief, ripping out their hair in anger and starting to cry; if the body is removed, they will resist, they will eventually go quiet when the body is gone, but upon seeing the body again, the chimp will return to a violent state.<ref>{{Cite journal |last=Brown |first=Arthur E. |date=March 1879 |title=Grief in the Chimpanzee |journal=The American Naturalist |volume=13 |issue=3 |pages=173β175 |doi=10.1086/272298 |jstor=2448772 |jstor-access=free}}</ref> Summary: Please note that all contributions to Christianpedia may be edited, altered, or removed by other contributors.
