Female Bonobo Skull Replica BC-123 $205.00 Order This / View Your Cart Sometimes called the pygmy chimp, the Bonobo is a species distinct from the "common" chimp, P. troglodytes. Bonobos appear to live in a female-dominated society, one in which males inherit their social status from their mothers. Bonobos are known for their sexual behavior; their casual sexual activity occurs in all combinations (female-female, male-female, male-male, juvenile-adult). These brief encounters often occur around the sharing of food or other occasions during which aggression could arise. It has been suggested that their sexual activity allows them to avoid conflict. We are grateful to the San Diego Natural History Museum for providing us with exclusive permission to cast this excellent 9-year-old female. A percentage of the sales goes to the museum to further its research. ©SDNHM2001; ©Bone Clones. See related products below. See related products below. Female Bonobo Skull Larger Image.

Male Bonobo Skull Replica BC-252 $205.00 Order This / View Your Cart Living in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (formerly Zaire), the Bonobo is smaller, has more webbing between its toes and less sexual dimorphism than the common chimp. The difference between the two chimps was first recognized by Portielje in 1916 and a few years later by Yerkes. But it wasn't until 1929 that Schwarz described the Bonobo as a separate subspecies. Coolidge, in 1933, described the Bonobo more fully, finally recognizing it as a distinct species. Humans, chimps, and bonobos share a common ancestry with humans, splitting off around 6 million years ago. Bonobos and chimps parted company around 3 million years ago.
