Human are primates, even. But what bothers me is having great apes in zoos. It's even worse with chimps. They're way too conscious to live in a glass cage. Or maybe they're fine with it, and I'm just projecting. They have less neocortex than we do, so abstract and hypothetical thinking is a priori harder for them, and they would have difficulties answering if we asked what they'd prefer. I'm so confused about all this.
