![]() But there are breakthroughs in “human” awareness all over the places. ![]() One of the most famous cases was the one about a chimpanzee couple from Austria, Hiasl and Rosi, who were not allowed to receive donatives because they were not “people with ID”, even though they watched TV documentaries and practically had a humanized life routine. All over the world, not only chimpanzees, but also gorillas, orangutans and bonobos prove their intelligence and sensibility, which makes that some cases reach tribunals. To make people recognize them as rational and emotional beings, who are only living an evolution time different from our. Morris’ intention is to provoke a new approach about our closest relatives. Considering that so small genetic difference, Morris believes that the chimpanzee should be included in the gender human, changing from Pan troglodytes to Homo troglodytes, defining them as human beings. We share 99,4% of their DNA, according to the researches coordinated by biologist Morris Goodman, from Wayne State University, Detroit (USA). Chimpanzees and bonobos must have appeared 5 or 6 millions years ago.Īll of them belong to the group of the anthropodes, but chimpanzees are the ones with whom humans most seem to. Orangutan appeared between 12 and 15 millions years ago, and after came the gorillas (8 to 9 millions) and the humans (7 millions). Africa was the place where the first no-tailed primates appeared. Popularly one calls all the primates monkeys, but the truth is that monkeys are the ones who have tails. These are the five great primates, which are so defined because they do not have tails and are a little bit ahead of their cousins monkeys on the evolution scale. Orangutan, gorilla, chimpanzee, bonobo and human.
