Fossil remains are present in Eastern Africa including Kenya and Uganda . Four species have been classified to date P. africanus, P. heseloni, P. major and P. nyanzae . The four species differ mainly in body size. Environmental reconstructions for the Early Miocene Proconsul sites are still tentative and range from forested environments to more open, arid grasslands. They had a mixture of Old World monkey and ape characteristics, so their placement in the ape superfamily Hominoidea is tentative some scientists place Proconsul outside of Hominoidea, before the split of the apes and Old World monkeys. Proconsul s monkey like features include pronograde postures, indicated by a long flexible back, curved metacarpals, and an above branch arboreal quadrupedal positional repertoire. The primary feature linking Proconsul with extant apes is its lack of a tail other ape like features include its enhanced grasping capabilities, stabilized elbow joint and facial structure.

Image Black capped Squirrel Monkeys in tree.JPG thumb 300px Black capped Squirrel Monkey s Apenheul Primate Park is a zoo in Apeldoorn , Netherlands . It specializes in ape s and monkey s. It opened in 1971 and was the first zoo in the world where apes and monkeys could walk around freely in the forest and between the visitors. It started with just a few species, now it displays more than 30 different primates , among them Bonobo , Gorilla and Orangutan . History Apenheul Primate Park was conceptualised by photographer Wim Mager in the 1960s, when it was legal for private citizens to own monkey s. Mager, who himself had several apes as pets, believed both humans and apes would benefit from housing the animals in a more natural forest like environment. He created the apen heul from apen meaning monkeys, and heul, an old Dutch word for a safe haven . Apenheul Primate Park opened in 1971 as a small but revolutionary park housing wool monkeys and other species. It was located in the nature park of Berg en Bos Mountain and Wood and proved popular with visitors and primatologists alike, leading to subsequent expansions. In 1976, Gorilla s were introduced to Apenheul Primate Park, with the first gorilla baby being born three years later. This was only the second healthy baby that had born in captivity in the Netherlands and the third in the entire world. The baby was raised by its own mother, which remains a rare event. A major setback occurred in 1981 when the cabin in which Apenheul Primate Park began burned to the ground, killing several monkeys. The building was subsequently replaced.
