This was brought up on the Chat Box but we need to ponder it more here I think.

Baboons are monkeys and not apes. Monkeys are not apes and vice versa (apes do not have tails) but both are primates :p

I wonder how Pan-kun would get on with the naughty Nikko monkeys for example, or the chilled out ones at Yamanouchi.
