Sadly, though, as Bubbles grew up and became more aggressive, Jackson moved him to a wildlife preserve sometime earlier in the decade. In March 2005, Bubbles was transported to the Center for Great Apes in Wauchula, Florida.
Bubbles, now about 26 years old, has grown to 170 pounds and lives with five other chimps. The center's website reports the ape does share one trait with his famous owner: "He is extremely gentle with the youngsters, especially infant Stryker. In fact, the baby can often be seen riding around on Bubbles' back."
