You've only go to pay a visit to the town centre on a friday night to see all the same sort of behaviour that's common throughout the primate world. In fact, most of it would make gentle species like the Gorilla ashamed to think that we share a common ancestor.
While mankind certainly can show behavior that is common throughout the primate world, mankind also has abilities (reasoning and behavior) that are far beyond that which is common throughout the primate world.
