Yes, humans are primates. That is the type of animal we are. We are one of the largest of the primates and the only one that walks upright. It is our bipedalism (walking upright), our ability to eat a varied diet and our larger brains that have helped us evolve to being self aware and eventually taking a great deal of control over this space.

But we are still animals just like every other creature on the planet. And so we have a type just like the rest of them.
