Gorilla, e.g (3)

I believe the answer is:

ape

(Other definitions for ape that I've seen before include "Imitate, clumsy person (colloq.)" , "Anthropoid primate" , "Simulate" , "Large primate" , "Primate resembling a human" .)

I've seen this clue in the LA Times, The Star Tribune, the King Feature Syndicate, The New York Times, the Universal, the Penny Press and the USA Today.
