Chimps share something like 95+% of their DNA with humans. Then again
humans share 65% or thereabouts of their genetic material with oak trees...

There is a succinct description of the genetic similarities here:

which I think is extracted from the book.

Is it now? A chimpanzee could get a decent photo out of
14,000 shots.
BTW, has anyone heard of DNA showing that humands are a
sub-species of
Chimp? Came across it in a SF story and wonder if there was
any truth
to it or did the author make it up.
Claim was that there is much more variation in chimp's DNA than
human's, and that human DNA only varied by about three strands from
the chimp's.
