The Mpumalanga Tourism and Parks Agency has found no gross negligence on the part of the Chimp Eden rehabilitation centre where two chimpanzees attacked an American student last week.

Lead investigator Dries Pienaar says the anthropology student Andrew Oberle put himself too close to the chimps.

Oberle stood next to the electric fence after climbing over a 1.2-meter safety fence.

He suffered severe injuries but is in a stable condition at a nearby hospital.
