Oliver The Humanzee (1970’s)
This was a bizarre turn of events for the circus world. Oliver was billed as a ‘missing link’ on the circus route. They claimed that he was of man and chimpanzee… They even had a medical statement that he had 47 chromosomes, which is one more than man and one less than a chimpanzee. Oliver was reported to be human-like in facial features and demeanor.
