Baby bonobos are highly dependent on their mothers for survival and care. They nurse for about four years, but the bond remains strong well beyond that. Even after weaning, young bonobos stay close to their mothers for comfort, protection, and social learning. They often rely on their mothers until they are about seven to nine years old, especially for guidance within their social groups. The maternal bond plays a crucial role in their development and integration into the bonobo community. Credi

Friends of Bonobos on Instagram: "Good news for bonobos in need!
