The Great Apes include the chimpanzee, bonobo, gorilla, and orangutan. These primates are closely related to humans. Because of loss of habitat, these primates are on the verge of extinction.

Anatomy: The Great Apes have very long arms (the arms are longer than the legs). They are covered with fur on most of their body (except their face, fingers, palms, armpits, and bottoms of the feet). Like all apes, they have no tail.

Diet: The Great Apes are mostly herbivores (plant-eaters). Occasionally, they eat insects or small animals.
