I've gotten a fascination of the Travis the Chimpanzee story from 2009. I'll spare you the details and have you look up that stuff yourself, but its quite disturbing so do it at your own risk.
A part of it that interests me though is that supposedly Travis himself was apart of a few commercials for brands like Old Navy and Coca-Cola among others. Despite several news article from around the time of the attack mentioning these commercials I've been having trouble finding them, outside of this Pepsi commercial supposedly starring him (though some have called into question that claim given the date of the commercial not lining up with Travis' birth):
There's footage of the Old Navy commercials (among other brands) in this tribute video that features several news reports of the incident:
I tried looking for the ABC News report to no avail but did find the Today clip featuring a few seconds of an Old Navy commercial:
I'm only really interested in these commercials for the historical value of them. If they're already up on the internet in their entirety, please let me know via a reply on this thread.
