In the great Tree of Life,
one branch of the mammals has a particular fascination for us, for we belong to it. Primates. Primate hands provide a firm grip. And forward facing eyes accurately assess distance. Both are crucial for a lifestyle that began in the trees. Intelligence among primates can excel that of all other animals. Primates can solve difficult problems... ..develop thoughts and ideas... ..and build long-lasting relationships.
