    Valtteri Sopenperä After humans, chimps kill their own species the more than other great apesZ Killing is certainly not rare in chimps. Also, they don’t live in small family groups, but in socially complex troops which can often grow surprisingly large in number.. Infanticide within troops has prominently been recorded in Chimpanzees. Uniquely, both male and female chimps have been known to be perpetrators.

    If a baby dies of natural causes, eating the body has a few possible benefits. Other than simple free meat, leaving a corpse lying around could attract scavenging animals that could pose a threat to other members of the troop, particularly the other young.

    So there are 2 possibilities: 1) this is a behaviour that most bonobos would do under certain situations 2) this is an abnormal behaviour expressed by this particular female, much like human cannibals in western society. given that she is sharing with her troop who are also eating it, probably the first one.

    I'd like to point out that the multiple (3) warnings on this video about how graphic it supposedly is are a really interesting choice by the Earth Unplugged folks. I mean, we see animals eating meat on nature documentaries all the time - I would assume that most people expect that there will be some eating of animals when watching nature documentaries, because that's what omnivores and carnivores do. So, that would mean that the warnings were unnecessary - most of us could have anticipated the gore. What's interesting then is the warnings themselves - they're not actually because the video itself is graphic, but because the context could be considered unnerving to many humans. Interesting to think about how they had to couch this video in protectively worded warnings, even though cannibalism is something that happens in nature, and procedurally is not that different from any other carnivorous activity, just because the idea of it makes humans alone uncomfortable.

    We don't share anything close to 98% of our DNA with them. The actual measurement-after considering non-coding sequences, arrangement of genes, etc-yielded results closer to 60-70% similarity. The original 98% figure came from an early study that ignored regions thought to have more variation and only considered genes (thereby ignoring non-coding segments, which happen to make up the bulk of our DNA).

    A major environmental pressure caused us to go bipedal. this was habitat loss. essentially, due to climate change, the jungles that we previously lived in were either turned into safaris, or we had to move into safaris, I'm unsure. anyways, the grass was tall there and we were already adapting tool use, so bipedalism would give us an advantage. with bipedalism, you could hold and make tools using both hands, instead of using our hands to walk quadrupetically. the lack of trees also made it useless to keep opposable thumbs on our toes for climbing, so very gradually, our feet became more fit for bipedalism, along with other bodily structures. in conclusion, there were very specific circumstances that led us down this path.

    Not sure ''must find'' is the right approach. It would be interesting,sure,but that's about it. In general,who cares - it's their busyness,if not for the curiosity of human species,we shouldn't care,we should leave the animals to their own devices and know better to keep distance as much as possible.

    Terry Rose that’s because it happens all the time. This is a big deal because bonobos eat fruit and vegetables not meat. They shouldn’t even know how to kill. This is probably their first time. Imagine catching a koala or a panda eating their baby. That’s how bizarre this is.

    Dogs eat their owners when left with their corpses. Doesn’t mean they aren’t heartbroken or that they didn’t care about them. It often starts as licking and morning and then moves on to consuming.

    Gives a new meaning to, “your baby is just so cute that I could eat it alive!” However, jokes aside, us humans valued our young and if bonobos shares over 90% of our DNAs, let summarise that they share the same value about their young too. Now, humans fall pregnant and due to all these incredible advancements in the medical fields, whilst expecting you can be tested and scanned at various stages of pregnancy and if unfortunately something is found wrong with the developing foetus, the carrier will be given options to terminate, and usually in modern humans it’s all about the money and not having enough to deal with the prospect of having a diseased or disabled child, we have that luxury. Unfortunately wild animals don’t, and if the pregnancy doesn’t end in a miscarriage, the baby will have to be bore. The kind of reputation wild life shows put across about bonobo apes, I’m very adamant that this mother killed her baby, and from can be seen of the remains of the infant, it’s not a newborn. I’m thinking the infant was born diseased and had obviously been taken good care off by its mother, as the mother seems to have an older offspring in her care that looks very comfortable with its mother. It seems the baby did die, but because bonobos don’t have the luxury that us humans are spoilt with, (the bonobo mother can’t go on Instagram, Facebook and write about her grief and talk to Oprah,) she’s a wild animal and still is a mother to her toddler and yes, I do have a strong belief that animals do mourn, but she’s still a mother and she still have to look for food and survive a hard life in the wild. She would have understood something was wrong with her newborn, that she’s already invested so much of her energy into, so it makes sense for animals to recycle the remains of their offspring especially when they still got other offsprings depended on her to survive into adulthood. In the animal world, there’s only two choices they have over the remains of their babies, abandon or eat it. I do actually believe if that bonobo mother didn’t have other offspring to raise, she wouldn’t had eaten her dead baby and would have done the typical things we seen great apes mothers and other mammals do where they’re seen mourning the lost by carry their dead offspring or staying close to it, tending to the corpses as if still alive until advancement of decomposition became too much for them. There’s also been stories of great ape mothers actually hiding the remains of their young somewhere hidden so that their bodies wouldn’t be scavenge upon by predators
