@ Luis: Yeah, the ones with flesh colored faces are cutw, but you don't see too many of them. Still, I think the pm ones are cute that way.

@ Alex: apes are wild animals, extremely strong, and can be unpredictable and dangerous. They are not good pets!

People keep apes as pets, too, just like some people keep tigers as pets, thinking they are tame and will not harm them, but it's not a good idea.

No, it's not a good idea. Even if they are sweet, and you can develop a close bond, they are still capable of quite a bit of harm. I saw a show where a man had a chimp as a pet, and his face got mangled (that's the first place they attack when they are threatened). Even cats, who we all know are sweet as apple pie  ;) can't conceal their wild side all the time.

cub tigers are cute but they are pretty grumpy :0

i friend's friend worked at a zoo and we once had to take care of a baby tiger for a few hours, it was quite an experience :)

What is the difference between a monkey and an ape??  :eh?:
In Dutch we only use the word "aap" (= ape)...

They're just different species, but closely related.
