Just to group these together, really.

In Argentina, an orang-utan is judged to be a non-human person, and thus to have the right to be freed from a zoo, into a Brazilian sanctuary.  (The zoo may appeal.)

In the USA, a chimpanzee is judged not to be a person, and thus to remain ownable property.  (The Nonhuman Rights Project  may appeal.)

In India, a monkey is filmed working for twenty minutes to resuscitate another, unrelated, monkey which had been electrocuted on railway wires.
