In February 2009, Charla Nash was viciously attacked by her employer's chimpanzee while attempting to help get him back into the house, losing both of her hands and most of her face. She filed a strict liability claim against Sandra Herold, her employer and Travis' owner.

often abused by their trainers, live in deplorable conditions, and often spend long periods of time traveling without sufficient water, food, air conditioning, or heating (Evans, 2010). The same can also be true for zoo animals. In 2010, complaints were filed against the Philadelphia Zoo for the inhumane conditions its elephants were living in.
