Both orangutans and chimpanzees share about 96 % of their DNA with humans.
In a recent study, orangutans have been named as the world’s most intelligent animal.
Once widespread throughout the forests of Asia, they are now confined to just two islands, Sumatra and Borneo.
The study has opened up the question-would it be possible to compare different species of primates for intelligence?
