If our ancestors were apes, why are apes still around?

There never was a genetic link between Humans and apes. The DNA research shows no resemblance what so ever.

Therefore;

Humans are humans.

Apes are still apes. That's the difference.

The classic argument of the epistemophobic.

One group of apes evolved into humans. Another group evolved into the modern ape.

The world is filled with species who reached their evolutionary peak and went no further. That’s like saying that because there are alligators that dinosaurs must still be around.
