Treetop Primates
Many people refer to chimpanzees as monkeys, but they’re actually great apes. Chimps are most closely related to humans, with about 98.6% similarity in our DNA. Like us, they laugh when they’re tickled, use tools, kiss, hug, fight, and hold hands; and when it comes to resources like food, they know how to share. Unfortunately, thanks to poaching and deforestation, chimpanzees are endangered. Our chimpanzee skull celebrates our closest animal cousin. Purchase one for yourself or for a fellow chimp lover. It makes a great gift for conservationists, anthropologists, animal behaviorists, and starry-eyed wild-life veterinarian students.
