Chimpanzees in Rwanda

A few of my favorite chimpanzee shots taken at Ngungwe National Park in Rwanda a few days ago. I'm told that chimp DNA is 98% identical to human.

Nice series, I especially like the third one.

I also really like the third one. He (or she?) looks quite content.

Thanks, Denise. Yeah, he (or she) looks amazingly relaxed there, high up in a tree.

Thanks, Taz. The gorillas were pretty incredible too.

Thanks, Jørgen. I find it surprising how humanoid he looks in that shot.

Both 2 and 3. Well done! They do look 98% human. Both pairs of eyes are looking right at and through the viewer in these pics. The casual pose in 3 is striking - definitely king of his environment.

Wow, these are terrific! I think number 2 is my favorite, but I really like number 3 as well. Great work!
