Ape also considers representations of apes in popular culture, discussing films, advertising and zoos, considering how apes have been portrayed as caricatures of humans, demonic monsters and as clowns. It also looks at the precarious future of the apes, many of whom are on the brink of extinction, focusing on the 'bush-meat' crisis in Africa, palmoil production in Indonesia
and the illegal pet trade, and also includes a discussion of sanctuaries that
may offer some hope for their survival.
