This one didn’t make the Waterhouse. But I thought I’d give it an airing to see what people think. Click here for the key. If you want to see the original, it’s on display at the Hahndorf Academy in the Adelaide Hills, SA until January 7.

Scientists have sequenced the genome of the chimpanzee and found that humans are 96 percent similar to the great ape species. / “Darwin wasn’t just provocative in saying that we descend from the apes—he didn’t go far enough,” said Frans de Waal, a primate scientist at Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia. “We are apes in every way, from our long arms and tailless bodies to our habits and temperament.” / Stefan Lovgren for National Geographic News August 31, 2005 See Meet the Ancestors

Gorillas are the largest of the living primates. They are ground-dwelling herbivores that inhabit the forests of Africa. Gorillas are divided into two species and (still under debate as of 2008) either four or five subspecies. The DNA of gorillas is 98%–99% identical to that of a human, and they are the next closest living relatives to humans after the two chimpanzee species. / The Eastern Gorilla is more darkly coloured than the Western Gorilla, with the Mountain Gorilla being the darkest of all. The Mountain Gorilla also has the thickest hair. The Western Lowland Gorilla can be brown or greyish with a reddish forehead. In addition, gorillas that live in lowland forests are more slender and agile than the more bulky Mountain Gorilla. / Almost all gorillas share the same blood type and, like humans, have individual finger prints / Both species of gorilla are endangered, and have been subject to intense poaching for a long time. Threats to gorilla survival include habitat destruction and the bushmeat trade. ~Wikipedia / Panasonic FZ20 / 1/60s, f/2.8, ISO:200
