I get and appreciate the sentiment but Jane’s own research showed how sadly chimpanzees are the same as us. War raids, murder, infanticide, rape and even torture.
They’re our closest cousins and we all suck in the same way at a base level.
Yeah chimps are actually some of the worst right? Their lives are kinda like a constant warzone. They also even do assassinations
If we’re going for the “good” apes, then gibbons and bonobos would be the best bet, from what I understand. Though gibbons aren’t in the same category (I forget which taxonomy level it’s at), they’re “lesser” apes. The only species of lesser apes still living too, I think. Not as great as the rest of us apes, apparently
And that’s me done showing off some of my very basic knowledge of primates
Orangutans are pretty chill.
Has she done research on bonobos? I think she mostly focused on pan troglodytes mostly
