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, with some scientists placing Proconsul outside of it 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.

animal testing A Primate Equilibrium Platform PEP is a device used to train chimpanzees and other primates in maneuvers similar to those of a flight simulator. The chimpanzees are conditioned, with a series of electric shocks, to keep the rolling platform level. The purpose of the platform is to determine primate competency under various levels of poisoning from radiation or chemicals used in common biological weaponry. After the subject has successfully completed a seven phase training procedure on the platform, the primate is either irradiated or poisoned to determine how long it can keep the platform level at different degrees of exposure, with electric shocks resulting from inability to maintain a level platform. The goal of the PEP research is to determine the ability of fighter pilots to deliver payloads in a second strike scenario, in which the pilots may have been exposed to radiation or chemical or biological weapons. Other references The PEP has received more fame than other animal experimentation devices due to its appearance in the 1987 film Project X 1987 film Project X . Additionally, the PEP is the focus of some controversy from the animal rights community, and it is discussed at some length by Peter Singer in his book Animal Liberation .
