Can someone find a website that will show the percent of genetic similarites between humans and other organisms?

Namely other primates?

I did find the chimp one, the human genome project showed it to be somewhere around 96%

I was looking for all the other ones, like apes, gorillas, monkeys

That sort or thing...

It depends upon how far is the organism in the evolutionary scale. For example, with chimpanzee, man is more than 98% genetically similar.

You probably could've looked this up somewhere on the internet, but the genetic percentage of similarity is somewhere around 90% for chimpanzees.
