No not Pubs but Apes as in Planet of the Apes
Or perhaps the better question should be 'How will we, humans like living with the Apes in charge after we are done f-ing up the planet?'

Gorillas seem pretty chill, but chimps are just mean bastards. They do look pretty funny in suits though, so maybe a net gain.
