It’s Zoo Babies month at the Cincinnati Zoo! Meet Daisy: the 7 month old bonobo! Bonobos, once called pygmy chimps, are the smallest of the great ape species. They share 98.7% of our DNA. Unlike gorillas or chimpanzees, bonobos are a matriarchal society. They are female lead, and female bonds take priority over male bonds. The Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Garden is proud to support Lola Ya Bonobo, the world's only bonobo sanctuary, in their efforts to rehabilitate orphaned bonobos, and reintroduce them into protected areas in the wild. Lola Ya Bonobo also helps communities coexist with bonobos by building a better future through conservation and sustainable livelihoods, rather than over hunting. @lolayabonobo @generalelectriccreditunion #cincinnati #animal #babyanimals #bonobo #cincinnatizoo
