Why Fifth Ape?

 

 

"There isn't a sharp line dividing humans from the rest of the animal kingdom -- it's a very wuzzy line -- it's a very wuzzy line -- and it's getting wuzzy-er all the time" - Jane Goodall

 

So, who or what is the fifth ape? We all know there are four great apes: Gorillas, Orangutans, Bonobos, and Chimpanzees.  There is, however, a fifth great ape - Humans. Recognizing and embracing this fact can profoundly change how we perceive health, fitness, community, and how we relate to the rest of the world.
