What should our society do once this bipedal primate gets official recognition?  Will we have to restructure our whole forest system because of this species?  Will we lose the right to use our woods and forest?  Do we as a society have to domesticate them?  What is our obligation?

The reality of these questions will need to be answered soon.  It is only a matter of time.  I know they exist and I am pretty sure there are some officials in our park system who also know.  Why the denial is beyond me.

The answer to the pressing questions is to leave them alone.  Protect them from harm by making it illegal to hunt or kill them and then let them be.  For hundreds of years they have adapted to avoid us.  To allow them their own choice and to protect their right to live is the right choice.  Beyond that will probably be their downfall.  My hope is that this plays out the right way so this is a win-win scenario for all.
