how do chimpanzees survive in their enviorment?

Answer 1

They eat fruit and leaves and make homes for themselves:)

Answer 2

Most primates do not shape their environment in an adaptive way. They use it as it is without modification. One exception is the chimpanzee. Chimps cooperate in hunting monkeys and other small game. While they do not store the meat, they do use it for social gain by sharing it.
Tool manufacture and use are virtually non-existent among non-human primates. However, chimpanzees, are notable exceptions. Some of them use very simple tools to help in acquiring food and water. For instance, chimpanzees have been observed stripping the leaves from twigs to make probes to get termites and ants to eat. Twigs are also used by them at times as toothpicks. Crinkled leaves are employed as sponges to get water from hollows in trees for drinking. Rocks and broken tree branches are used to crack nuts and sometimes throw at other chimps in order to intimidate them. Rocks are used at times as projectiles in hunting bush pigs and other small game.
