I know that orangutans do not like to swim, and usually can't, but they can be taught. Chimps and gorillas cannot swim. I'm not sure about any other ape. Check out this wiki page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquatic_ape_hypothesis
yes a chimpanzee can swim but it wouldn't swim in the wild No chimpanzees do not swim nor can they swim. chimps dont have enough body fat to maintain bouyancee, they would sink and drown. waterways are natural borders for chimps and are also used by chimp reserves to keep groups seperated
Most apes have difficulty swimming because their muscles are much more dense than human muscles, and because they have much lower body fat compared to humans. This makes buoyancy incredibly difficult and makes apes more likely to sink rather than be able to keep themselves afloat. While there have been isolated cases of apes showing an ability to swim, this is usually a behavior learned from humans rather than a natural response, as apes have an instinctive fear of deep water.
Chimps are like humans, if they have lesons they can swim, yes!
Can a gorilla swim? No, there bones are much to dense, so they sink like a rock. Can a chimp swim? Yes, a chimp and smaller monkeys can.
yes a chimp and smaller monkeys can

We are all apes and we are closely related to the other apes.
No, apes are mammals.
apes
The usual answer is that camels cannot swim, but they can. There is a question whether some apes, such as gorillas, may be too top heavy to swim, but this is not proven either way. In any event, their bodies are not that much denser than humans in water. The armadillo is another mammal where at least one species *can* float and swim, but some other species may be unable to.
No. Apes and bears are not related.
