Rescue centre in Wareham is asking for help to buy specialist feed for orphaned ape with allergies.

Durham University finds that chimpanzees are as likely to console as the 'more empathic' bonobo.

Scientists say that humans are able to understand many of the gestures made by wild chimpanzees.

Researchers believe that gestures used by great apes were an evolutionary "starting point" for our language.
