ANIMAL INTELLIGENCE MUHAMMAD DZUL HUSSAINI BIN HANAFI KB1309FD4722 CHIMPANZEE INTRO Chimpanzees‚ sometimes colloquially Chimps‚ are two extant hominid species of apes in the genus Pan. The Congo River divides the native habitats of the two species. Chimpanzees are members of the family Hominidae‚ along with gorillas‚ humans‚ and orangutans. Chimpanzees split from the human branch of the family about four to six million years ago. Chimpanzees are the closest living relatives to humans‚ being members

containing all VERTEBRATES (animals with segmented spinal columns)‚ and are also split into 2 suborders: HAPLORHINI‚ which includes lemurs and lorises and STREPSIRHINI‚ which includes tarsiers‚ monkeys‚ apes‚ and humans. I went to the Santa Barbara Zoo and observed their primates. I looked at 2 apes: the western lowland gorilla and the white-handed gibbon and 1 monkey: the Bolivian grey titi monkey. The first primate I observed was the western lowland gorilla. Its GENUS‚ its group of closely related

SHOULD ENDANGERED SPECIES CHIMPS USED FOR RESEARCH PURPOSE? Along the years‚ chimps are the most used animal in world of science apart from other animals such as rabbits‚ mice and guinea pig for research purpose. In recent years‚ the general public‚ lawmakers and scientists have expressed increasing discomfort over the use of chimpanzees in biomedical research. Today it would be considered morally unacceptable to carry out many of the experiments that were done on them in the recent past. Some

in showing who we were. The chimpanzee‚ one of the great apes‚ makes it home in the forests of Central and West Africa. Their long arms and legs adapt them for living in such regions as lowland jungles and mountainous regions. Humans are classified in the order Primates‚ and family Hominade. Within this family‚ human beings‚ our nearest living relatives‚ the African apes‚ are also placed. Though in some classification standards‚ apes are placed in the family Pongidae.

There are many types of species of primates throughout the world‚ ranging from Prosimians‚ Old World Monkeys‚ New World Monkeys‚ and various number of apes.

Monkeys seem particularly ubiquitous; a cursory online search can connect you with a purveyor. Exotic animal auctions are crowded with buyers‚ and the Captive Wild Animal Protection Coalition

Aaron Berneking 10.12.12 ANTH 203 Dr. King The Marvel of Culture Throughout this course there has been a significant amount of discussion on the topic of culture. While this class is biological anthropology instead of cultural anthropology‚ the analysis of culture is the one topic that I find most interesting and fundamental to any field of anthropological study. The pursuance of an anthropology degree has led me to many different definitions and understandings of the term ‘culture’‚ but

he discovered the first bone. When he first discovered her‚ Johanson was immediately able to identify Lucy as a hominid. A hominid refers to a member of the zoological family Hominidae. Hominidae cover all species originating after the human/African ape ancestral split. It was so clear that Lucy was a hominid because she stood and walked in an upright position. How do we even know this much? When collecting the bones‚ Johanson observed the vertebrae showing evidence of spinal curvatures necessitated
