Can a human-gorilla hybrid exist?

The answer to your question can be summed up in two words:\n\nDom Deluise.

To my knowledge it would be the bonobo or chimp. But they are apes(no tails and opposing thump?)

Great question, Sassy!  ( And, I'd just like to add that You're a Gorgeous Woman! Wooow!!! )\n\nYou "would" think that apes & gorillas could reproduce simple voice words...but, they cannot.  However, they do understand human words & visual symbols...They certainly understand the meaning of various vocal sounds between one another...Maybe the missing 2 chromosomes are essential for speech? )\n\nBirds that "talk" are just imitating/mimicking phrases that are repeated to them over-and-over again.

They already are considered different species--even though they *are* genetically compatible (i.e., the hybrid is not sterile).  Some people believe that wolves and dogs are in the process of speciation--that is, they are becoming separate species, but haven't completely diverged yet.  Wolf-dog hybrids don't occur very often in nature because they have different social and mating patterns.  Nevertheless, if you stick a male and a female in heat together in a cage, eventually they're going to do it.

There is no proven connection at this time, hence it being a "theory." There are definite similarities, like we share 93% of the same genetic similarities with orangutans.

A - because they are the same species and therfore have the same number of chromosomes, which means they can breed together.  homosapiens and chimpanzees are quite closly related but have different number of chromosomes so they cannot mate.  if they did manage to mate the offspring would be infertile, a bit like the liger, which is the offspring of a lion and a tiger.  chimps and humans have approx 97% of the same genes!!

If by traditional you mean old world monkey, new world monkey, chimp, ape, man,  that scheme was established a while ago and has been backed up by genetic analysis, ie by growth hormone family.

No.  If it was possible, don't you think there's be a bunch of little monsters (literally) running around.\n\nHuman and animal sperm and egg are incompatible.  For example, sperm from a horse or a dog or something is incapable of fertilizing a human egg.  Thus, no child is born.\n\nA human egg is designed to only accept human sperm.  Animal sperm couldn't penetrate into the egg even if they wanted to, without specialised scientific equipment.  At the same time, human sperm is designed to only be able to penetrate a human egg, and does not posess the qualities necessary to get into an animal egg.\n\nThe only species that can cross breed are a horse and a donkey, which creates a mule.  However, mules are sterile, which means they are incapable of creating thier own offspring.\n\n\n\n\nOh, and as a response to the first answer, scientists HAVE found a way that they believe would work, but have deemed it unethical, and illegal to experiment further.  Why on Earth would we want to purposefully create little freaks for anyway?

The two most closely related species to \nChimpanzees (Pan troglodites) are the Bonobos or Pygmy Chimps (Pan paniscus) and Humans (Homo sapiens).  Chimpanzees are more closely related to humans than they are to Gorillas and Orangutans. Some anthropologists argue that the two species are so similar genetically that they should be classified together in a single genus.

gorillas are apes ,monkeys are not apes .apes are gorillas, chimpanzees orang utans and gibbons.A subspecies of chimpanzees is called Bonobo. Those are the ones most closely related to us humans

No:\nThey too distantly related.\nAlso their chromosome number and chromosome and shapes and gene layout, and individual genes are vastly different, so they cannot pair up in the fusion that is part of of the fertilisation reaction.

Not possible for cross species mating in nature.

Not sure about a hybrid, but I know that spider monkeys live in the rain forest.

Hell does not exist. Gorilla would go to heaven even if not saved a life.

Monkeys with monkeys yes! Humans with monkeys NO!

Neanderthal and Monkey.

We didn't come from apes. Apes and humans have a common simian ancestor, but the species evolved separately.
