Yes, apes existed long before humans. The evolutionary lineage of apes diverged from that of humans millions of years ago. Modern apes, such as chimpanzees, gorillas, and orangutans, evolved in their own distinct lineages, while the human species, Homo sapiens, emerged much later. Thus, apes were already thriving in various environments long before the appearance of anatomically modern humans.
