Chimpanzees

The "Monkeys" scientific name is Catrol Vancliechin == == There are many species of monkey worldwide. Macaca fascicularis (macaque) is only one of them. Others are Chlorocebus aethiops (vervet monkey) , Mandrillus sphinx (mandrill) , Papio cynocephalus, Papio anubis (2 baboon species) and the critically endangered and brighly coloured Brazilian Leontopithecus rosalia . The latter is the name of the Golden Lion

ALL vehicles requiring a CDL - that includes both commercial vehicles and combinations with a Gross Vehicle Weight Rating or Gross Combined Weight Rating in excess of 26,000 lbs., as well as vehicles under 26,000 lbs. GVWR which require a CDL because they are a: carrying a quantity of hazmat which requires placards to be displayed or b: a bus designed to transport more than 15 persons (including the driver).

Additionally, commercial vehicles with a GVWR of 10,001 - 26,000 lbs. require a DOT medical card when they're being operated across state lines.

they do have a a smelly penis...because of what they eat in the wild plus... chimpanzes often...like to lick eacothers backs while grooming...so their hairy back mixes with their saliva...

Yes they can their was a lady on T.V. that had one as a pet...... but she was on their because her gorilla attacked her.

There are no advantages for having a pet chimp for either the chimp or the human. As babies, they are easy to care for and can pretty much be raised as a human child. However, once they reach adolescence, they become 7-10 times stronger than a human. No matter how loving a relationship a chimp has with their human family, there is always the possibility they will lose their temper and attack, or attack a neighbour. Not even the trainers in Hollywood can handle them after this, and usually get rid of them or keep them in cages their whole lives after a childhood of severe abuse.

Also, it is not kind to the chimp. When they become too strong to handle, many zoos cannot take pet chimps, because chimps learn their social skills from watching the members of their community as they get older, and they do not know how to interact properly with other chimps. They also cannot be put into the wild for this reason. Sanctuaries are usually full to capacity. Some owners are so desperate they resort to sending their chimp to a biomedical lab to be used as a research subject. Not to mention the fact that these baby chimps are taken from their mothers to be raised by humans. This has exactly the same effect it would on a human mother and child.

Chimps are also very endangered in the wild, and keeping them as pets gives the impression that the species is stable, when nothing could be further from the truth.

If you love chimps, do some research and help protect them in the wild, or fundraise or volunteer for a sanctuary. But never ever ever get a pet chimp. It ends badly for all involved.

Eugenie Scott rephrases this question, "if you were born from your cousin, why is your cousin still alive?" The answer is that your cousin did NOT give birth to you, but that you and your cousin both share a common ancestor. Likewise, humans share a common ancestor to Chimps and Bonobos. This ancestor is one that we would likely label an ape. Therefore for most people's purposes, yes, we evolved from apes, but not from modern apes.

We would most likely classify the miocene ape that is the common ancestor of humans and modern apes as an ape. It was a primate, as we are. The catarrhini include the old world monkeys, gibbons, great apes, and humans. These and the platyrrhini (new world monkeys) are included in the same clade. Our next closest relatives would be the tarsiers. We are yet more distantly related to lemurs, galagos, lorises, and other primates, all of which are, of course, eutherians (placental mammals).

Two key pieces of genetic evidence for our common ancestry with the old world primates are the L-gulonolactone oxidase gene which expresses a protein responsible for ascorbic acid synthesis, and the number of chromosomes. First, the GULO gene is broken in us the same way it is broken in almost all other old world primates. That is pretty decent evidence for common ancestry. On the other hand, the old world primates have 24 pairs of genes, while we have only 23. If evolution is correct, somehow a pair of monkey chromosomes must have fused. Chromosome ends contain recognizeable DNA sequences known as telomeres. It turns out we have identified the two ape chromosomes which fused to form a single human chromosome, and we even find the telomere markers within that chromosome.

There are plenty of other strong pieces of evidence. The Rh blood factor. The letters "Rh" came from the rhesus monkey, where the factor was first studied. Human females menstruate, procreate, give live birth, and nurse their young in much the same manner as apes. The differences between us and other primates are quite small.

In response to one previous religious answer (which was removed), why is the fact of evolution depressing? I cannot think why I should be any more appalled at the realization I am a product of gradual evolution (divinely guided or not) than I am the product of riverbank mud. Just look at what our species has achieved.

Parrots and chimpanzees share many common features, such as the ability to comunicate in context(use words/sign language and know what they are saying) In certain cases parrots in general, spcifically the African grey parrot exceeds the chimpanzee in intelligence. An African grey parrot can be taught that words are made up of different parts that can be rearranged to form new words while its believed that chimpanzees don't have that kind of understanding of the language.

The terms, "eat to live" or "live to eat" are focused on quite the extremes in regards to life and food. Without understanding the context to which majority of us humans live and eat, it is easy to get into a debate as to whether humans eat to live or live to eat.

Today, food is something we take for granted on a daily basis, three times a day, often failing to acknowledge or understand where it comes from or the amount of work it takes to get it. As such, those who eat to live, as many wild animals in the animal kingdom do, know how much work and life goes into finding food to eat in order to live. Such animals are often the predatory animals of the Animal Kingdom, such as wolves, cougars, bears, eagles, hawks, owls, tigers, spiders, whales, ants, and ladybugs.

Then you have the non-predatory animals that often find food almost everywhere they go. Herbivorous animals such as buffalo, deer, aphids, cattle, horses, sheep, rhinos, hippos, and antelope are such animals that fall into this category. One can say that such animals "live to eat," however when looking at elephants travelling across a land faced with a serious drought crisis and starvation such a saying would be tipped in the favor of "eating to live."

This question, however, is not dealing with such non-human animals as above, but rather the human animal. Pertaining such question to a single species with a highly diverse array of social hierarchies and living conditions which they are found in is almost impossible to answer without acknowledging such diversity. When acknowledging such diversity, such as from the rich to the poor, from those who live the most sustainably or "off the grid" to those who do not, and from those with severe eating disorders to those who are completely normal in terms of the food they consume, one can begin to see the gray area between "eating to live" and "living to eat." One could easily come to the conclusion that some humans eat to live, others live to eat, and many more are somewhere in between.

Eating is a ritual by many cultures, a three-times-a-day meal, one that, as mentioned above, is taken for granted on a daily basis. There are feasts, and fasts, and just a regular meal to buy or make. Some eat too much (which others call "gluttony"), while others eat too little. Some have more than enough money to buy food to last a lifetime, while others don't have enough to even buy a loaf of bread to feed a family of 10. Few are lucky enough to have the resources available to get their own food from the most primary resources they have available without even having to spend a dime; many others have to constantly and consistently rely on the money in their pockets to purchase what they want to eat.

So do we really eat to live or live to eat? That all depends on you, your lifestyle, how much money you make, your culture, your psychology as far as wanting to eat is concerned, and many, many others. No one answer is right, nor is one answer is wrong: each and every one of us has our own reasons as to which answer we feel is right for this question.

The archaebacteria are the only anaerobic species, who do not tolerate free oxygen.

The genitals of the female Chimpanzee balloons into a giant pink swelling during her time of estrus. This is when she is most susceptible to becoming pregnant. The pink coloring and smell of hormones lets potential suitors know that she is receptive. The alpha male usually gets to mate first, followed by those who are aligned with him. Some younger males must mate in secret in order to avoid a fatal beating or exile.

Males attract females through a ritual known as "leaf cutting." They will pick a leaf from a branch and run it through their teeth, stripping the membrane from the stem. This creates a noise that will capture the attention of females in estrus. If the initial attempt fails, they will continue to strip leaves until the noise gets the attention of the females. Sometimes males will resort to shaking entire branches of leaves.

A chimpanzee's gestation period is around 8 to 9 months.

Why is the hardest answer to find on the internet, hmm...

Technically, nothing. Humans are a species of Great Ape. Humans have a notably higher cranial capacity than other extant ape species, however. They also are the most comfortably bipedal, though all apes can walk upright, and they have significantly smaller canine teeth than other apes.

It's thought to be about 5 to 7 million years since humans and chimps shared a common ancestor.

because unfortunately injured or unwanted horses are cheap and in large supply...:(

it must find food and water,avoid been eaten, and must have a place to live

This is simple, but if chimps have keener hearing, they can be more aware of their predators around them; if a predator approaches, they can hear it and run away.

Yes. We used to think about certain behaviors, especially tool use, as being primarily human. However, spontaneous tool use has been observed in many species of non-human primates. Chimpanzees make "wands" to fish for termites, for example. Capuchins (the new world monkeys that most people think of when they think of a generalized monkey) also use tools--they use rocks to crack open nuts.

Of course, crows can also make and use surprisingly sophisticated tools, so we probably the main issue is that human beings like to think our behaviors are more special than they are.

Yes, primates have learned sign language, how to count, can use tools, show empathy, and a sense of humor, to name but a few behaviours that are usually thought to be human.

Chimpanzee faces are pinkish to black, and the apes' bodies are covered with long black hair. Chimps lack a tail. Their opposable thumbs and toes help them grasp objects easily. Chimpanzees are quadrupedal, which means that they walk on all four limbs, although they can also walk upright (bipedal) for short distances.

Chimps are nasty little creatures that stink. I say kill all the baby chimps with ball bats.

Yes. It can be a female first name such as Jo-Anne. Or a shortened version for Josephine.
