She was grandfathered into the system. She got the Chimp when it was legal to take care of them and there was no real regulation. (14yrs ago is when she got him) The law states that you are now able to keep a chimp until 50lbs. But because she was grandfathered in there was no requirement in which she had to let the chimp go.
On a side note I think my dad met her and the chimp one time?!?!?!?
