it has been found that apes differ from men by a genetic factor by 1%. However i have never seen any discovery/natgeo feature showing a bloody chimp "whacking the bunny". Why is it so??

Some apes/monkey do "whack the bunny" as you put it.

all apes actually whack the bunny/spank the monkey/stroke the salami/play the maracas. It's mostly done in relative privacy and not often witnessed by people in zoos. And most definately not shown on discovery, Zelda is right.
Then again, you can find almost anything on the web.

Behaviors don't always coincide with genetics. Many times behavior is a condition of the environment an organism lives in. While some behaviors are "pre-programmed" (think of ducks following the first thing that moves after they hatch), you find that most behavior is learned by "nurture", not "nature".

obviously you haven't been paying attention. there are even a number of avis/mpegs making the rounds showing chimps engaging in this behaviour.

That would be censorship. Go to your local zoo and watch the monkeys.

That's normal behavior.
