It is hard to tell from the pictures, but if H'Angus does not have a tail,
then he isn't a monkey at all.  Monkeys have tails.  If he doesn't have a
tail, then he would be an ape.  There are many difference between apes and
monkeys, but the tail is the main difference.  There are 4 types of apes:
Chimpanzees, Gibbons, Gorillas, and Orang-utans.  He looks like he could be
a chimp.  But, without seeing the backside, one can not tell.
