Greater Ape

Greater apes (Monaciinae) are a family of great apes closely related to chimpanzees, gorillas, and humans, but their ancestors diverged from the ancestors of humans, chimpanzees, and gorillas 8 million years ago. They are omnivorous, although most are mainly herbivorous (in one species, even completely herbivorous), some are known to have predatory instincts much like chimpanzees and/or can scavenge on dead animals. The biggest species of the greater ape is the mountain false gorilla (Monacium fosseyi), which grows around 250-300 pounds bigger than true gorillas of any species. They are all listed as Least Concern, unlike most other non-human and non-bipedal apes, due to successful conservation efforts, their breeding habits like tribal humans, and their ability to tolerate most of human activities, including being able to adapt to life in the cities and suburbs.
