The planet of the apes

Coming soon.
Spain's parliament voiced its support on Wednesday for the rights of
great apes to life and freedom in what will apparently be the first
time any national legislature has called for such rights for non-humans.
However...
Keeping an estimated 315 apes in Spanish zoos will not be illegal, but
supporters of the bill say conditions will need to improve drastically
in 70 percent of establishments to comply with the new law.
Hmmm. Apes have the right to freedom, but they can still be kept in zoos. I guess that's fair. Freedom has to be fought for so I suppose the Spanish authorities are waiting for our troglodyte cousins to organize themselves into a political party to demand their freedom in Parliament. Otherwise, they'll just assume that these apes freely choose to stay in the zoos.

In the meantime, Consigue tus patas maloliente de mí, tú maldito mono sucio!
