Habitat is Home
Bonobos spend much of their time in the tree canopy, searching for food.
Bonobo Range Groups of bonobos are scattered throughout this incredibly small region.
Bonobos live in the Congo basin rainforest, the second largest tropical forest in the world.
Time is Running Out
The bonobo population is known to have declined rapidly since the mid-1980's, but few population surveys have been conducted due to years of civil unrest.
