Ape

Apes were a variety of primate, native to Earth. Reverend Ernest Matthews was turned into an ape by Josiah Samuel Smith as an ironic joke at his disbelief in the evolution of man from apes. (DW: Ghost Light)

Silurians such as Restac referred to humans as apes. (DW: Cold Blood) In his ninth incarnation, the Doctor called humans "stupid apes" on a few occasions. (DW: Rose, Father's Day)
