Don't be a monkey. I'm not sure if it is just me or if there is really a lot of confusion out there in the world about the differences between a Chimpanzee, which according to genetics researchers as the closest related primates to human (homosapiens, sapiens).
But the dramatic differences don't stop there. Monkeys have tails while the ape families (chimps, gorillas, orangutans and gibbons) don’t. Apes, having a different shoulder bone structure compared to monkeys, can swing from branch to branch, while monkeys run instead along the top of branches. Apes also resemble humans more than monkeys do. And according to National Geographic, chimps hunt and even eat monkeys.
So the next time your driving on the road and you cut someone off in traffic an
d forget to wave an apologetic hand instead of the finger when I honk at you, remember, your acting like a monkey and the person you just cut off may be a chimp or other ape-related creature... and we eat animals like you for breakfast.
