Primates like Apes have been serving humans against their wills for a long time. Apes have been sent to space, used for animal testing, used against their will for entertainment, held captive by exotic pet owners, being forced to live in Zoos, and eaten by people who view them as prestigious food. Apes are kept in cages in laboratories where some of them are even breed, born, and killed for the results of horrifying experiments. Many primates not just Apes are subjects to test experimental drugs
who performed this act. While both texts deal with the aftermath of dead pets, both discuss a completely different topic. The purpose of text A is to persuade the reader to use their services. You can see this from the use of language and the tone from the text. The language used is
Likewise, human beings belongs to the Primate Order, which is known to consist mainly of apes, monkey and lemurs. These primates all share a similar evolutionary process as well as they all possess a characteristic present in humans, that is the enculturation process. For example, Koko the gorilla was taught sign language from an early age through exposition and nurture, resulting in mastering it perfectly. Hence, if primates are able to adapt and change to its culture, how is the enculturation process
Maisie and Indie are up close against the railing that wraps around the gorilla’s enclosure. Indie asks, “Oh, oh aren’t they gross?” about the two gorillas who are sitting up, almost on top of the glass. One of the gorillas is much smaller than the other. When I point to her and say, “She must be the female,” Indie asks, “So?” Bane says, “I bet you’re right,” and Indie and Maisie roll their eyes. Then Bane reads from the little sign next to the railing, “The big one is called Richard, and the female

01.05 The Byzantines: Assessment A. 1. How would you name the school? What would be its mascot? Explain your choices. I would name the school Lincoln High School (named after the famous US president) because Lincoln was able to accomplish many things as president. Without Lincoln the US would be a very different place. The mascot would be the monkey because monkeys are extremely intelligent creatures. 2. Why do you think symbols like a name or mascot are so important to the people of the city?
The order of primates include a wide and varied array of species, from lemurs to macaques to humans. Grouped by distinctive characterestics, they are also distinguished by clear dissimilarities. Both these aspects may be seen with comparison to chimpanzees and bonobos and to an even more marked degree in regards to nonhuman primates and humans. Each species possess its own specific traits ranging from physical to behavioral to mental that set it apart from its biological kindred while still being
Monkeys are interesting creatures that have been studied and trained by scientists all over the world. They have many interesting features and have been included as characters in movies and books such as Curious George. Monkeys can be studied according to these characteristics : habitat, types , food, habits, and intelligence. Monkeys live in places in North America, South America , and Central America.

primates. Some things I already had knowledge of, a lot were things I could not have even thought were primate related. From the (occasional) meat-eating chimpanzee to the shock of lemurs being more primate than weasel my knowledge has expanded a great deal. For this project I chose to observe a primate that I was not too familiar with. I felt as though as soon as someone hears the word “primate” the first thing that comes to mind are either: chimpanzees, gorillas or orangutans. Not to mention that
The primate observation that I chose to observe are Orangutan, Squirrel Monkey, and Lemur. This observation took place in the Lowry Park Zoo on October 18th. I went to the Lowry Park Zoo around 2 pm until 5 pm. The purpose of this observation is through primate’s anatomy, locomotion, and behavior to getting know them better, and how they are differences and similarities compare to human beings. When I got there, the Zoo was already very crowd. There were lots of people in the zoo; I think probably
Analysis Assignment: “Love in the Time of Monkeys” I chose to analyze Eduardo Fernandez-Duque’s article “Love in the Time of Monkeys.” Fernandez-Duque’s article describes and explains the monogamous relationships had by Azara’s owl monkeys (Aotus azarae). As the reader, I know that the Fernandez-Duque is specifically studying Azara’s owl monkeys because he has dedicated an entire paragraph to give background about his previous studies, why he wanted to study these types of animals, and also what
Chimpanzees and Bonobos are both two completely different species of apes and they have several key differences that make each of them distinct. For one, Chimps are much more aggressive towards each other. They fight and even murder other chimps. Bonobos are much more peaceful towards one another. Another major difference between the two apes is that Bonobos are controlled by females, which means that Bonobos are run by Polyandrous social structures. Chimpanzees are the opposite, they are run by
Disney’s 2015 documentary film Monkey Kingdom exceeds entertainment, but instead provides a profound insight on the intricate connections that exist between humans and chimpanzees.

The Eastern Black and White Colobus monkey are found all over Africa. Their name Colobus means mutilated one, referring to their reduced thumb. They have a tail that is 706 mm long for females and 829 mm long for males. They weigh between 6-11 kg, with the males being slightly larger than the females. The Colobus lives in small social groups of about ten animals, which includes one adult male, a female, and her children. We observed the Colobus at the Henry Villas Zoo in Madison, WI. The animals
The biggest overt difference that one notices when comparing nonhuman primates to human primates is the loss of body hair in the modern human, to the extent even, that humans have been described as the “naked ape” in many contexts. The primates classified as old world apes that are closest in relation to humans are the Bonobos and Chimpanzees. Looking specifically at the Chimpanzees, we can compare and contrast the properties of the skin and hair between them and humans to get an idea of the evolutionary

Saguinus bicolar bicolar, known as the Pied Tamarin is a new world monkey that can be found in forests and swamps of Brazil. They often are grouped in either multi male or female. Their diet is mostly on fruits, flowers and insects. Also, they have a forelimb proportion and a terrestrial locomotion. (Helen Branch House – Exhibit) They have grasping hands, feet and tails. I was not able to see it with my own eyes, but new world monkeys are known for having grasping tails compared to old world monkeys
Christopher Williams 10/18/17 Room 11 Comparison of Gorillas and Chimpanzees These animals are both apart of the Great Apes family. The Gorillas are one the most powerful and extraordinary animals. They are not extraordinary for their force and size but also for their human-like behavior. They are crucial to the variety of animals and plants. An example is they consume fruits with seeds. Gorillas are the third closest living relatives. The gorillas live in Africa near the equator. Gorillas are the
