So I'm flipping through my d20 Modern core book and I read the "Ape" entry under the "Friends and Foes" chapter. There we are told that "Apes are powerful omnivores that resemble gorillas but are far more aggressive; they kill and eat anything they can catch."
I said to myself: "Hmmmm....that doesn't sound right." So I did some quick research and confirmed what I already suspected: "Ape" is a general term that encompasses gorillas, gibbons, chimpanzees, and orangutangs. In other words, all gorillas are apes.
It bugged me a bit that the d20 Modern boys invented a "new" type of animal by distinguishing apes from gorillas. I would think the real-world animals should at least be relatively accurate in their information given...
