Leon, we wanted to reply to your comment, so we asked Craig Sholley of the AWF (the guide in the film) to weigh in on the matter. He was not surprised that you would question the percentage of relatedness between gorillas and humans. Here is his response:It’s a controversial subject and depending upon which reference you cite, DNA similarities between man and the great apes range from 97 to 99%. Most authorities agree that the common chimpanzee is most related to man. As I recall, I think I mentioned on the trip with Charlie that the shared DNA content between man and most of the great apes was as high as 98.6%; hence, the title of the film.We hope this helps clear up the source of the title. We do recognize that there might be discrepancies in the percentage and nature of the genetic similarities.- explore   See 1 other reply

Jon, unless you're an experienced ornithologist, you should hold your tongue. You're saying that there is no bird in central Africa that sounds similar to the one bird you mentioned. Believe me or don't, I don't care, but I was living in rainforest in the DR Congo, and I heard birds which sounded pretty similar to the one you pointed out.   See 1 other reply

Welcome to the internet Joey. It seems that every man, woman and child-like-moran now has a computer. They are always ready, willing and more than able to voice their opinions... which usually involves demanding things from Hulu and other free content providers. When they aren't busy on forums, they spend most other time shaking their tiny, stubby fists at scientists and their new-fangled round Earth theories.   See 6 other replies

Hey Keith, are you going to divorce your gorilla wife? I bet you like it when she flings fe@es at you and farts in your face.   See 6 other replies
