Long live the Bonobos

[flybabywhosfree]

Bonobos are an extremely endangered ape (less than 15,000 left in the wild) that only lives in the Democratic Republic of Congo which for the past 10 years has been torn apart by civil war. Chimpanzees live in violent male dominated societies. Sexual coercion and infanticide are common, as is war

As if what's happening to people in this world isn't bad enough, it breaks my heart to see what's happening to the world's wildlife. Maybe I'll come back as a Bonobo, too, then we'll each already have a friend when we get here. *g*

Ok Yeuxdebleux, I will be looking out for you. I will be the one with a daisy behind my left ear, and a big blue-eyed boy bonobo just begging for my favours.

Well now...that should make you easy to spot. *g*

Heh, this is timely - I just had to to a research paper for my Anthropology class on a variety of apes, and the bonobo was one of them. ;)

There is no infanticide, sex is used to resolve all kinds of conflict, and bonobos do not have war.

Sounds brilliant. Count me in! ;)

Great! Another bonobo convert. They do sound like the loveliest of creatures, no war and sex is the answer to everything! That is my kind of creature.

Hey Abfic,
I heard a line on the radio the other day (not sure from where)
that mother nature was musing "If only gay sex was the answer to global warming!"
and I thought of you immediately,

Now that might be another cause we want to join!!

BTW Elijah on a bike, can I have one of those icons?

Bonbons The Bonobos! How cool! I dare you to say this line as fast as you can without making any mistakes. ;D

You? Weird? I didn't say that!!

[flybabywhosfree]

Bonbon & The bonobos! Coincidence? I think not!

Hey another anagram - Bobo? Any news?

[nannerss]

Yeah! ;)

How about this anagram Bobo the Bum fluff? *big sigh*. I'm so over it. :D
