Ape

Rise of the planet of the Apes is an American Science fiction movie which was released August 2011. The movie begins with a Scientist who works for a major drug company known as Gen-Sys. He developed a cure for Alzheimer's disease and was in the process of testing it. They experimented the drug ALZ-112 on a chimpanzee and it seemed to have worked however he didn't know about the side affects it may have. later that day at a presentation, the chimp goes berserk and it was put down and the experiment

When it comes to apes, monkeys, gorillas, etc., in visual and literary works of art we really get both ends of the spectrum. We see them as childlike in Curious George and we also see them as loving and compassionate and very much a community in Tarzan. I wouldn’t count Tarzan as portraying them as advanced because they can verbally speak, just because of the fact that in the majority of Disney movies there is at least one talking animal. I would count Planet of the Apes though for showing them

Have you ever wondered what gorillas and baboons eat, where they live, and what they look like? Even though you may think these primates are the same, they are really quite different. From the habitats to the diets, gorillas and baboons are interesting creatures. Some of the differences of these two animals traits are that gorillas weigh about 374 pounds and baboons only weigh about 82 pounds at the most. Gorillas are about 5.6 ft tall and baboons are only 2.3 ft tall. A few similarities are

While some Neotropical primate species use the forest floor extensively, others tend to exploit the ground only when necessary. A recent overview of ground use by Pitheciidae covered Pitheciinae (uacaris - Cacajao, cuxius - Chiropotes and sakis - Pithecia), but did not include titi monkeys (Callicebiinae: Callicebus, Cheracebus and Plecturocebus). However, unlike the generally high-canopy Pitheciinae, members of the Callibiinae often use low forest strata and disturbed fragments, putting them in

Three experiments were conducted to illustrate that Chimpanzees could discriminate between appearance and reality. Chimpanzees were the chosen subjects because they are our closest relatives, and there is evidence that chimpanzees can check their appearances and recognize themselves in mirrors. The first experiment, the Lens Test, was performed by minimizing and maximizing different lenses to test whether the chimpanzees could discern the object when it appeared to be bigger or smaller than its

Food distribution helped gelada baboons to reproduce. On the Semen Mountains of Ethiopia, they have plentiful grass that can support a large herd. Baboons do not seem to be protective of their feeding ground. Not only from each other but also Walia Ibex which lives on the mountain and share their resources. Baboons have long and dense hair on their back and front hair is much trimmed. A part of their chest, palm and face is bare skin. They have long and narrower face from the sides. The mouth is

Did you know that monkeys are placed in groups? Monkeys are placed in group by many things that they have. In this article it talks about how there are different monkeys, where they live, and how they stick together. Different kinds of monkeys that are out there in the world. Monkey’s are separated in two groups based on how they look and where they live. Scientists call the two groups old world and new world. The old world monkeys are different than the new world monkeys because they need different

“Love in Infant Monkeys” Lydia Millet A mother can impact lives greatly. Could you imagine growing up without a mother? You can either be very lucky with a mother that cares for you or be deprived of that sense of love from a mother figure. It is inhumane to destroy any kind of maternal bond because mothers are not people to depend on, but are people to make depending not required. In my opinion, Harry doesn’t understand the true meaning of mothers earlier in the story but does get they
