Apes (including Chimpanzees, Gorillas, Bonobos and Orangutans) eat primarily fruit and vegetation, however certain apes, such as the Bonobos and the Chimpanzee, have food sources that can range from live prey, such as insects, to small mammals (even other primates, such as monkeys). Therefore, they are omnivores, much like humans. Depending on their location and the amount of food available, an ape will eat just about anything

Why is it dangerous to go into the sun without any protection?
In short, sunlight is made of light waves. These light waves are of various energies. The small band of energy we can see is called the visible spectrum. These waves are not dangerous to us. There are light waves that are slightly higher in energy these are known as Ultra Violet(UV) rays. These rays contain enough energy to penetrate your skin cells and cause damage to your DNA. This damage can lead to serious side effects such as skin cancer if you body is unable to properly repair the damage. Luckily the vast majority of the time your body is able to repair the damage through a number of highly complex DNA repair mechanisms.
The Bale Monkey, or djam-djam, has a decreasing population - mostly due to loss and degradation of suitable habitat. As a result, they are listed as "Vulnerable" in the IUCN Red List (one step below Endangered). As of yet, however, there is a lack of formal data about the species' population and distribution, but a research papers suggest the population was less than 5000 in 2010. To protect this species, it's exceedingly important to implement conservation strategies of the bamboo forests of Ethiopia.

Why do you suppose there are more monkey than ape species?
Long and complicated answer to this, but I'll try to make it short.
Originally there were more species of ape, however the monkeys were quicker and more rapidly adapting to their environment, and out-competed the apes. This caused apes to change their shoulder joints in order to hang beneath the branches rather than run along the top of them so that they filled a different 'niche', they also shifted their distribution range to Asia (African apes migrated back to Africa after becoming apes in Asia, rather than evolved from African monkeys). Monkeys are also smaller (therefore need less to eat, meaning less territory to travel over), live in large groups, have shorter gestation periods...
In short, the monkeys out-competed the majority of the species of ape.
Second answer
Apes are descended from monkeys. Monkeys are primarily arboreal, meaning they live their lives in the trees. Apes are part-terrestrial-part-arboreal, meaning they spend the day on the ground and the nights in the trees. Terrestrial animals require large territories in which they can roam to find food. The availability of food sources therefore affects where they can live. Only a few areas are able to support apes, while all monkeys need are plenty of trees. A good comparison would be between the myriad species of birds and the small handful of large flightless birds, such as Ostriches.
What do you call the offspring of howler monkeys?
