Yes, humans are primates. But, one of the differences is, humans don't have hands for feet. The reason humans are primates is, we can both walk on 2 legs, we both have hands, but, we are omnivores and others are herbivores. They live in parts of a jungle though. We also live in different environments, other primates live in jungles.
