PRIMATES PONGIDAE Genus PAN Oken, 1816 Chimpanzees There are two species (Dandelot, in Meester and Setzer P. troglodytes (chimpanzee), Guinea to Uganda, and south to Lake Tanganyika, but not including the central forests of Zaire south of the Congo River; P. paniscus (pygmy chimpanzee, bonobo), central Zaire. The latter species sometimes is considered a subspecies of P. troglodytes (see, e.g., Horn 1979), but recent evidence suggests not only that the two are distinct but that P. paniscus bears some resemblance to the ancestral stock that gave rise to the Pongidae and Hominidae (see, e.g., papers in Susman a ). Three other subspecies of P. troglodytes usually are recognized, and Tuttle 1986) followed some older authorities in listing a fourth, P. t. koolokamba, a large, "gorilla-like" animal. Shea 1984), however, explained that koolokamba is based in part on local folklore and that purported specimens thereof have generally turned out to be either large male chimpanzees or small female gorillas. There has been considerable controversy regarding the technically proper generic name for the chimpanzees. Pan is used here because of its familiarity and in the hope of promoting nomenclatural stability. Van Gelder (

4. Welcome To Primarily Primates, INC. San Antonio, Texas sanctuary specializing in chimpanzees, orangutans, new world and old world monkeys. Offers a history of the facility, press clippings, details of rescued animals, and a virtual tour. http://www.primarilyprimates.org/

Primarily Primates, Inc., is a unique non-profit animal protection organization that provides sanctuary, rehabilitation, lifetime care and shelter to various non-native species of primates, birds, mammals, and reptiles that otherwise would continue to suffer from abuse, neglect, or be killed as unwanted surplus. Founded in 1978, Primarily Primates has grown from a facility caring for three monkeys to its present community of more than 600 primates, 150 birds, and various mammals, including a small number of wallabies, horses, bears, and black leopards. As you explore our online sanctuary, you will have the opportunity to meet many of these animals and hear their stories, take a virtual tour of our grounds, read news and information about us, and find out how we can be contacted. "My only hope is that one day all chimpanzees in research facilities will be retired and no more chimpanzees ever used again." Dr. Jane Goodall, Scientific Director, The Jane Goodall Institute Primarily Primates, Incorporated could use your support.

8. Welcome To Primarily Primates, INC. However, the remaining chimpanzees were going to be transferred in just months and Primarily primates was still not prepared to house the animals. http://www.primarilyprimates.org/airforce.html

In 1998, Primarily Primates was the only sanctuary in the United States to be awarded 30 U.S. Air Force chimpanzees. The chimpanzees were part of a huge colony of 144 apes that were owned by the Air Force. In their earlier years, the chimpanzees were used in the early space program and had been used in various experiments. Then in 1997, U.S. Congress ordered the Air Force to divest themselves of the 144 apes at no cost to the government. With the award of these apes, Primarily Primates constructed five new chimpanzee facilities for 37 apes (seven additional apes were sent to us as well). It was a tough campaign too as Primarily Primates had only 14 months to complete the enclosures before officially gaining title of the chimpanzees. With the clock running out, Primarily Primates began construction of the indoor bedroom areas of the enclosures as soon as we had the funds to construct two of the four needed enclosures. Each of the indoor bedroom facilities consisted of a 20' x 40' cinder block and cement building that is divided into 6 separate sleeping quarters. Each of the 6 rooms are interconnected with doorways so that all six rooms can be opened to form one large area. The doorways can also be closed so that chimpanzees can be transferred or introduced as needed. It was imperative that the indoor bedroom facilities be complete and construction was rushed. Before we knew it, the deadline to accept the apes was right around the corner and plans made to ship the apes were underway. The chimpanzees would arrive in three separate transfers.

Abstract Premack & Woodruff (1978) asked "Does the chimpanzee have a theory of mind?". Since it was posed, nearly 20 years ago, Premack & Woodruff's question has dominated the study of both social behavior in nonhuman primates (henceforward simply "primates") and cognitive development in children, but progress in the two fields has been markedly different. Developmentalists have established empirical methods to investigate children's understanding of mentality, and, forging links with philosophy of mind and philosophy of science, they have mustered the conceptual resources for disciplined dispute about the origins (innate module, convention or testing), on-line control (simulation or inference), and epistemic status (stance, theory or direct knowledge) of human folk psychology (e.g. Goldman 1993; Gopnik 1993; Gopnik & Wellman 1994). In contrast, those working with primates have continued to struggle with the basic question of whether

These intelligent primates live in a variety of environments in western and central Africa. Because of the rapid deforestation of their habitats, chimpanzees are an endangered species. ANATOMY Chimpanzees have very long arms (the arms are longer than the legs), and a short body. Hair and Skin Chimpanzees are covered with black hair on most of their body (except their fingers, palms, armpits, and bottoms of their feet). Baby chimpanzees have very pale skin in the areas that have no hair and a white tuft of hair on the rump. Senses Chimpanzees have senses very similar to ours, including hearing, sight, smell, taste, and touch. Face Chimpanzees have a slight brow ridge, large ears, small nostrils, and an elongated snout. They are capable of many expressions. Chimpanzees have a hairless face except for a short, white beard in both male and female adults. Some adult females become bald.

web hosting domain names email addresses Meet my cousin the chimpanzee Most people take it for granted that humans are more important than apes.But this assumption has more to do with double standards than biology Richard Dawkins Sir, you appeal for money to save the gorillas. Very laudable, no doubt. But it doesn't seem to have occurred to you that there are thousands of human children suffering on the very same continent of Africa. There'll be time enough to worry about gorillas when we've taken care of every last one of the kiddies. Let's get our priorities right, please! This hypothetical letter could have been written by almost any well-meaning person today. In lampooning it, I don't mean to imply that a good case could not be made for giving human children priority I expect it could, and also that a good case could be made the other way. I'm only trying to point the finger at the automatic, unthinking nature of the speciesist double standard. To many people it is simply self-evident, without any discussion, that humans are entitled to special treatment. To see this, consider the following variation on the same letter:

About Store Register Contact The Dictionaries: Language Specialty Multilingual Translation ... Word History The Collected Works of the Phantom Linguist Can Primates Talk? Humans seem to acquire language in a manner different from other types of behavioral learning. The onset of language learning is sudden (around the age of 2). We learn our native language without instruction, in fact, we can learn 2-3 languages at that age as easily as one. If we do not learn to speak between the ages of 2 and 6, it appears that we lose the ability to speak normally the rest of our lives. All this evidence suggests that we have a ' language organ ' which other species do not possess, a segment of our brain which is triggered by a stage of development, much the same as walking is. A simple way to disprove this Innateness Hypothesis, as linguists call it, is to demonstrate that other species have the capacity to speak but for some reason simply have not developed speech. A logical candidate for such a species is the chimpanzee, which shares 98.4% of the human genetic code. Chimpanzees cannot speak because, unlike humans, their vocal cords are located higher in their throats and cannot be controlled as well as human vocal cords. It does not follow from their lack of speech, however, that chimpanzees are incapable of language, that is a human-like grammar. Perhaps they can acquire grammar and speak if they could only use grammar some way other than with a voice. The obvious alternative is sign language, since all primates have extremely dexterous hands and sign language is a language. You have probably already read about the regular chimpanzees

20. Tools Used By Primates Tooluse by primates shall be discussed in terms of monkeys (primarily capuchin monkeys) and the great apes (who shall be divided furthermore into chimpanzees, http://wvwv.essortment.com/primatesmammal_rrtr.htm

Tools used by primates Tool used by primate mammals. Animals can be said to possess a level of cognition based upon their use of tools for problem solving, an endeavor previously considered the sole domain of humans. "Cognition is the ability to relate different unconnected pieces of information in new ways and apply the resulting knowledge in an adaptive manner" (Boysen, 18). Thus, any individual who exhibits understanding of causal relationships and is able to use that understanding as a means of problem solving, must be defined as cognitive, or thinking. It has long been believed that humans alone dominated the intellectual sphere of thought in the animal kingdom, but research has demonstrated that not only do many other animals, from insect to bird, use and create tools in order to accomplish given tasks, but monkeys and apes, in particular, are able to make use of tools in a "human" manner. This leads to a new understanding of what separates humans and our nearest relatives, and how much separation really exists. It is necessary to define what is meant by "tool-use" in order to examine its existence, and the results, which may be extrapolated by tool-use in animals. A tool is anything not part of the body, which is used to accomplish a given task. This varies from a stick poked by an orangutan into an anthill (in order to obtain ants), to feces flung by a monkey at a predator, to a human shooting a bird with a rifle, to an elephant scratching his flank rubbing up against a tree. Any object, which is taken up or used for the specific purpose of accomplishing a task, is a tool. The presence of need for a tool must also be considered a factor. An ape does not need to store water in containers when water is plentiful, nor will he if there is nothing with which to store the water anyway. One may not discount tools used in captivity, but not in the wild as inconsequential, for they prove that when presented with a potential tool, primates can create an actual tool.
