Polyamorous isn't a specific enough term. Perhaps for the sake of our discussion it's enough to say that neither animal demonstrates monogamy or the kind of harem / central-female-group characteristic of sultans or lions.
There's a lot of good material online about what chimp mating behaviour is actually like.
Monogamy is rare in the animal kingdom, more characteristic of birds than of any other creatures.

Chimps live in what could fairly be called a polyamorous society.
What about Bonobos? If Chimps are already polyamorous, maybe we need a different term for Bonobos?
