There are more 300 species of primates in the worldfrom humans and apes
to monkeys and prosimians ("premonkeys"). Several primate species have
been discovered in Brazil and Madagascar in recent years.
The smallest primate is the pygmy mouse lemur, which can fit in the palm of your hand. The largest—the gorilla—can weigh more than 400 pounds. Most primates live in warm climates, and most depend on forests for their survival.
