Gorilla (Gorilla gorilla)
Gorillas, chimpanzees, and orangutans are the genetically closest animals to humans. But there is a paradox. Chimpanzees share 99 per cent of our DNA, meaning that there is less than a one per cent difference between us, but gorillas and humans share part of that one per cent that differentiates us from chimpanzees. Therefore, scientists are curious to find what exactly makes us Homo sapiens.
