Chimpanzees have 32 teeth. Just like humans, chimpanzees and apes have rounded jaws. Our teeth are very siimilar, but the canine teeth of a chimpanzee are much larger than a human's. Chimps are omnivores, like humans, and eat mostly fruit and insects, with the occasional meat of a monkey when they can catch them.
