There is growing evidence, because we are now caring to look, that great apes are capable of creative thinking and other higher cognitive functions. In recent years, researchers have found speculative evidence that wild chimpanzees may even some form of superstition or religion. Their activities are startlingly similar to some human traditions in Africa. The problem is, wild populations of chimps are being wiped out and it is a race against time before this "culture" is lost.
