GREAT SMOKY MOUNTAINS NATIONAL PARK
He’s Gotta Be Part Monkey…

Will Blozan has hiked thousands of miles through Great Smoky Mountains National Park and climbed hundreds of feet into the tops of the park’s tallest hemlocks.  As part of a very special hike hosted during the Wildflower Pilgrimage earlier this March, a group of us were able to follow this intrepid tree climber into the woods, to visit the SECOND LARGEST hemlock tree ever documented.

    Lookng at a strictly DNA basis, researchers have found that the DNA from a a human and a rhesus monkey shares about 93% of the genetic material.

    The new analysis of the rhesus monkey genome, conducted by an international consortium of more than 170 scientists, also reveals that humans and the macaques share about 93 percent of their DNA. By comparison, humans and chimpanzees share about 98 to 99 percent of their DNA. http://www.livescience.com/health/070412_rhesus_monkeys.html

    So iguess we would ned to say that Will is much more chimpanzee than monkey.
