From the misty mountains of Africa to the dark and dappled rainforests of Southeast Asia, the great apes dwell in ever-decreasing numbers. This book investigates every aspect of their lifestyles and looks at the similarities and differences between gorillas, orang-utans, bonobos, chimpanzees and humans. It reveals the timidity, and at times, ferocity of the great apes and shows why they are the most intelligent group of animals. Myth boxes explore popular stories about great apes from all over the world and "did you know?" highlights provide quirky facts to amuse and amaze friends and family.
