In the third episode of Chimp Crazy, titled “Head Shot,” airing on HBO on Sunday, September 1, 2024, at 10:01 p.m., the film crew faces a moral dilemma as they draw parallels to a previous PETA case in Oregon that took a dangerous turn.
Actor Alan Cumming, who has a special connection with Tonka, joins the search by adding $10,000 to the reward for information on Tonka’s whereabouts.
Tonia Haddix, a former nurse turned exotic animal broker, refers to herself as the “Dolly Parton of chimps” due to her unique bond with these primates. Her love for one particular chimpanzee, Tonka, sets off a chain of events that leads to a game of cat and mouse with authorities and animal rights groups.
Chimp Crazy: Head Shot airs Sunday, September 1, 2024, at 10:01 p.m. on HBO.
