Directly after, Steinbeck elaborates on Lennie’s physical characteristics: “a huge man, shapeless of face, with large pale eyes, with wide, sloping shoulders: and he walked heavily dragging his feet a litte, the way a bear drags his paws” (2).

Only 29.4% of characters over the age of 40 are female in cable television; the number only decreases to 21.4% in film (Smith, et al. 2).

We as humans are much more similar to chimpanzees than we believe. While reading through the book by Jane Goodall, “Through a Window, My Thirty Years with the Chimpanzees of Gombe”, I noticed many references as to why humans and chimpanzees can be of comparison with one another. Another source that I got information about chimpanzees and them being so similar to humans is the video clip watched in class, “Monkey in the Mirror”, this video explains the cognitive learning of chimpanzees and it…
