They are in fact much more than little chimpanzees. Humans and Bonobos share between 99 and 99.6% of their genetic makeup. Their lack of agressiveness and excitability (quite unlike chimpanzees) is thought to perhaps be more similar to the first humans. There is also growing evidence that bonobos may be as different from chimpanzees as chimps are to gorillas. One can only imagine to what extent this will be realized as more is learned about the lives of bonobos. status: ENDANGERED Distinguishing Characteristics Black, a white patch on tail region for juvenilles as well as adults.

The Center for Great Apes, located in Wauchula, Florida, was founded in 1993 as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. Its primary purpose is to provide a permanent sanctuary in a safe and enriching environment for orangutans and chimpanzees in need of long-term life care ? specifically those who have been used in entertainment, kept as pets by private owners, or served as research subjects. The Center began as an effort to offer lifetime care for five young apes born at a private breeding facility before they were sold as pets or entertainers, and so far, has taken in many more apes with circus, entertainment, pet, and research backgrounds.

Read More Go to Site Early Primate Evolution: The First Primates Votes:0 The First Primates P rimates are remarkably recent animals. Most species of living things had become extinct long before the first monkeys and their prosimian ancestors evolved. While the Earth is about 4.55 billion years old and the first life dates to at least 3.5 billion years ago, the first primates did not appear until around 60 million years ago. That was after the dinosaurs had become extinct. 65,000,000 years ago present T ransitional primate-like creatures were evolving by the end of the Mesozoic Era (ca. 65 million years ago). At that time, the world was very different from today. The continents were in other locations and they had somewhat different shapes. North America was still connected to Europe but not to South America. India was not yet part of Asia but heading towards it Read More Go to Site Endangered Primate Rescue Center Votes:0 The EPRC based at Cuc Phuong National Park is dedicated to the rescue, rehabilitation, breeding, research and conservation of the endangered primates of Vietnam.

Lemurs Primates evolved from ancestors that were tree-climbers. Even though some of us have taken to the ground, we still share those tree-climbing traits: freely moving arms and legs, prehensile tails (although you may have noticed that yours has all but disappeared!), flexible fingers and toes, forward-facing eyes to help us judge distances, and a fairly large brain.

Here will be presented five different current taxonomies, with two by the same author but have dramatic differences. Simons (1972) This is the primate taxonomy proposed by Simons (1972). Schwartz et al. (1978) This is the primate taxonomy proposed by Schwartz et al. (1978) Szalay and Delson (1979) This is the primate taxonomy proposed by Szalay and Delson (1979). Fleagle (1988) This is the primate taxonomy proposed by Fleagle (1988). Fleagle (1999) This is an update to the primate taxonomy proposed by Fleagle (1988), which includes significant revisions. Read More Go to Site Primates Votes:0 Note: A more recent taxonomic scheme for apes places humans together with three of the other great apes (gorilla, common & pygmy chimp) under the common family Hominidae, which then branches into two subfamilies: 1. Homininae, which includes modern Homo sapiens and exctinct ancestor species, and 2. Gorillinae , which includes chimpanzees and gorillas. The orangutans, under this scheme, are placed under a different family: Pongidae . Here we follow a more traditional scheme.

Taggart, Professor Department of Plant Biology Department of Geological Sciences Michigan State University Evolution of the Order Primates can be traced back to the early Tertiary period and the order is considered to have developed as an offshoot of a group of small, nocturnal, insectivorous mammals known as tree shrews . Several sub-orders are recognized: Prosimians Prosimians represent the least derived group of primates and include lemurs, lorises, and tarsiers. All of these animals are nocturnal and all species are endangered as a result of loss of tropical rain-forest habitat. A lemur ( Propithecus verrauxi ), endemic to the island of Madagascar off the east coast of Africa. Lemurs feature a somewhat elongated snout with minimal overlap of the visual field of Read More Go to Site Primates Votes:0 Primates Humans are part of the primate family. Other common primates include the monkey, baboon, orangutan, chimpanzee and gorilla.Primates have several distinctive features that separate them from other mammals. Primates have well developed hands and feet, with fingers and toes. Their opposable thumb makes it easy for them to grab things. Primate eyes are forward in the head giving them stereoscopic vision. This allows them to judge distance. Primates also have large, highly developed brains. Their intelligence allows them to control and manipulate their environment. The highly developed visual center of the brain helps primates distinguish colors. Their large brain also allows them to develop complex language and communication skills. Monkeys and apes walk on all four limbs, but they ma Read More Go to Site Primates Votes:0 Howler Monkeys put up a roar for passersby. Primates - Mammals of the First Order (About 180 species.)

They usually weigh between ten to fifteen pounds when full grown. The Hybrid Spider Monkey is classified as extremely endangered due to a continuing decline in their overall population. Spider Monkeys have adapted to their treetop environment by using their tail as an extra limb, this makes them extremely agile when swinging through the trees. GORILLA : Male gorillas grow to about 6 feet tall and can weigh up to 600 pounds. The smaller females can reach a height of 5 feet and a weight of 200 pounds. Gorillas are social and peaceful animals. But unfortunately, gorillas are losing their habitat to farms and are being poached.

Both trips we took were to the Sekunder area near Besitang on the East side of the ecosystem. The observation site that we worked at is on the border of the forest and the 12,000 hectares (30,000 acres) that was slashed and burnt three years ago. The scientists in the area are trying to compare the life in the somber wasteland to the small amount of lush, succulent forest left. The Sekunder area is lowland - that is why scientists are actively studying that area. Because the Sekunder area is lowland, it is home to some of the last wild Sumatran Elephants, Sumatran Tigers and Sumatran Rhinos.
