Mitumba Chimpanzee Community

The Mitumba Chimpanzee Community is a community inhabited by wild Western chimpanzees that lives in the Gombe Stream National Park which is situated near Lake Tanganyika in Tanzania. This community borders the well known Kasakela community of chimpanzees. The Mitumba community became well known following the immigration of a female chimpanzee from the Kasakela community known as Flossi, who is the only female chimpanzee in her entire family to leave her mother's natal group.

This family group originates from the Kasakela community which was part of the poineering study by primatologist Dr. Jane Goodall, however the family line continues with Flossi's immigration into the Mitumba community.

Flossi

Flossi (born 1985) was born in the Kasakela community and is Fifi's second oldest daughter.
