Footage has emerged of Jambo, the 'naked chimp', who resides at Twycross Zoo, UK.

The video, shot late last year, shows the ape running around his enclosure banging on the walls.

"Jambo suffers from generic alopecia, which is the general medical term for hair loss," the filmer wrote online.

"He's got plenty of muscle and being 'naked' certainly doesn't stop him from doing anything as he is the alpha male in the group," she added.
