Brutal violence, overpowering, and partial consumption of adult human flesh, check.

Alan Walker, though google gives me countless citations of this study, it's a pain in the ass to find. Close as i could get is this http://www.jstor.org/discover/10.1086/59...1552488193
Check for having several times the strength of an average human.
As for rape, all you've got to go on is rumors.
example: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/1...rapes.html (langur, not chimp)
However, monkeys have become a genuine problem in some places:

Take it as you like, nature's still fucked up. And once again: these are not even claiming that one of the more intelligent apes are responsible (we're apes for instance, chimps are apes, sorry if I ever said monkey, it's american), but far less powerful monkeys.
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word

There was also a Louis Theroux documentary that is enough to scare me out of ever wanting to be near a male chimpanzee after it hits puberty.

Indeed. They might rip your face off but rape you? I doubt it.

Those lunatics who treat them as 'pets' deserve all they get.

They are certainly misguided. But they genuinely love these animals. I wouldn't say they deserve do be seriously injured or killed.

Humans have fucked or otherwise sexually assaulted dogs, pigs, goats, ducks, cats, lions, beavers, rats, rabbits, every race of human, monkeys, other apes, horses, donkeys, squid, octopi, snakes, and more.
I want evidence that other animals, which have been shown to rape inter-specially, have some sort of filter that stops them from sexually using humankind without prior consent.
Prove that there is a magical difference between a human, and a creature that is 99% of what a human is.

Perhaps not, but I have no sympathy when they do. I wouldn't call it 'love' either, more like selfish self-love.
