Took a trip with my driver today to see the Bonobos. The further we drove, the worse the roads became. First decent paved roads, then paved roads with pot holes, then washed away roads with little pavement, to dirt roads, to washed away dirt roads, etc. We enjoyed lunch at a local weekend retreat and then on to Lola Ya Bonobo.

"Not many people know that we have another close relative besides the chimpanzee.
Like chimpanzees, bonobos share 98.7% of our DNA. Chimpanzees and bonobos look very similar. But if you look closely, you'll see that bonobos are a little smaller, with pink lips, black faces, and a very attractive hairstyle with long black hair neatly parted in the middle. The first two toes of bonobos have a little bit of webbing. While chimpanzees
have low, loud voices, bonobos are very high pitched. Also, bonobo mothers have
breasts that look a lot like humans" cited from the website below:

Check out the pictures to see the misbehaving bonobo behind the fence. He was the only bonobo to give me a present.....throwing dirt at me repeatedly as we tried to walk by.
