Apes Genius

An interesting video about the inter-lecture level of Apes, which we related it to our works in IB English class recently, takes about 50 mints. It shows the differences of human and ape, which is 99 percents accord but only 1 percent makes it so diverse between animal and human, which is defined by itself and spiteful, quote the word from BELOVED, as the apes were trained and examined as animal. When we discussed this and related to the slavery, on thought appear that the apes indeed were some kind of slaves when human examined them during the video. I suddenly realized that the issue itself show the deep darkest side of the humanity yesterday, if you could imagine that happened within the same species or toward the species that contained the ability to express. Although that specific ability particularly stunned the innovation and evolution of the apes and other creatures.
