KEN ALLEN & THE MONKEY EXPERIMENTS
This is a clip from Keep It Weird's SEASON 8 EPISODE 12: JABBERWOCKY STRIKES AGAIN!
Ashley brings us two stories in a new segment she calls MONKEY'N AROUND! First up is our new favorite Orangutan, KEN ALLEN. Known as the "Hairy Houdini" at the San Diego zoo, Ken became famous for outwitting his zoo handlers and escaping his "inescapable" enclosure several times. Then we head into the modern day and discuss China splicing human DNA into chimpanzees. The goal is to attempt to find the gene that gave us consciousness... but could it result in Planet of the Apes?
