I do not know if some of you guys have managed to watch Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, but to be completely honest with you, the movie touched my core. I don't want to spoil the movie in case if anyone else is still interesting in watching it, but all I am going to say that apes, whether it also applies in reality, are very much compatible just like humans. The movie, to be quite honest, made me change my opinion on animals. I used to hate lions, pigs, and elephants, but after the movie, it made me have hope that animals do have a mind and a conscious just as humans do. But as far as the apes are concerned, I am really psyched about adopting an ape in the future, because the intelligence between apes and humans are significantly similar in proportion. So, what do you guys think about apes, and the potential "un-extermination" of them? According to some scientists, they may consider the rapid production of apes to grow considerably high within the next couple of years, leading to decades, since the current remainder amount of apes are at 500,000. Do you think they are capable of matching up to human intelligences?

You asked our thoughts with questions, and my response to those questions were answered with the simple but clearly profound rolling of the eyes.

No Animals do not have the conscious capability of Humans. And if we do it'll be a long time before we know it. Yeah Apes are very much like Humans, they definitely have emotional capacity, memory, learning skills and relatability. So do many Animals, though. It's not really that surprising to be honest.. just youtube koko the gorilla or whatever its name was. The fuckin thing had a favorite actor for gods sakes. So yeah we were created by the same force / being / entity / circumstance as Animals so similarities are bound to happen. 

Now question were you high when you made this thread? just curious 

As anthropoids, we have a lot of similar characteristics as one another. Regarding to your question, even though apes may seem as intelligents as homini's, they are not. Of course, primates are very intelligent species. Although, their own ape characteristics can sometimes disable them from doing anything a human would do. For example, our brain is far more elaborate and developed than an ape. Also, as for adopting an ape, I think that would be quite difficult. It's not like adopting a cat or dog. Those mother fuckers would tear your limbs apart, easily.

We define everything by scientific means but when you get down to possibilities it may not be for all of them but in each species there can be stand out. Or maybe the theory of evolution holds true possibility is always there. That is the only word I have for this is possibility.

I don't think that's the only thing that struck you in the brain before you posted this.

You're right. Rise of the Planet of the Apes as well.
