Primate Quizzes, Questions & Answers

Consider yourself something of a science buff? If so, you may be interested to learn that we have challenging quizzes on the topic of primates – but just how much do you know about the order to which humans belong? Primates arose from animals which live in the trees of tropical forests many millions of years ago.

With the exception of humans, which have gone onto inhabit much of the planet, primates mostly live in tropical or subtropical regions of America, Africa and Asia. Primates include animals like the tiny little mouse lemur, and the colossal eastern lowland gorilla, which weighs over 200kg at full size – impressive! If you’re ready to showcase your skills (and your opposable thumbs), take our quizzes right now! But be warned… fail your questions and you’ll be relegated to chimp-like status in our eyes!
