I've done a few drawings of this Gorilla from the zoo in Albq. New Mexico. Totally fascinating how much we are like them. And they like us. How some religious folks can look at them and not believe in evolution? Or the connection between them and us? Or that somehow we are superior to them? Amazing. And tragic at the same time. And hey, I know, a Monkey is not a Gorilla and a Gorilla is not a Monkey. But they are close enough in their resemblance to us for me to put them together in this 'Daily Monkey' blog project.
