Bonobo: the Female Alpha

[CleoTheSim]

The males and females do NOT share dominance in bonobo society. The sister groups are in charge. Males have no power. Don't believe this sexist crap.

[MissGangifer]

women rule! ya ya ya!!!!

[horbergaren]

Do not listen to this voice, he is a jackass who exaggerates all things you can see on the film

[foxyjohnuk]

@horbergaren rubbish!

[Patavinity]

Not sure the female carrying a branch around is enough evidence to suggest she is 'boss'. Or am i missing something?

[RedNativeRose]

@Patavinity to us it seems like nothing but in bonobo society it shows strength and respect....im learning this in anthro :)

[cracktroop75]

very human

[maritzasolito]

Thanks for the video; I enjoy happy clips!

[FeelOfFriction]

Is it assumed the viewers are retarded?  Fuck you NG!

[fruithero]

@FeelOfFriction I was thinking the same! Is this for 8 year olds or something? We need David Attenborough to narrate this!

[OhMySavy]

@FeelOfFriction LOL Agree.

[humanpinata5000]

did you know the bonobo chimpanzee is the only non-human primate that has oral sex?

[foxyjohnuk]

@humanpinata5000 yes!

[featheredmusic]

BONOBO MAMA



[Gettinghitonattheban]

I doubt anyone really "rules". I think it's just human bias to put rank and hierarchy into everything.

[foxyjohnuk]

@Gettinghitonattheban Rubbish, observation of wild animals shows without doubt that amongst social animals that there is heirachy... and this is the same with humans... heard of kings and queens?

[vmgrd34]

Horrible patronising commentary. Who is this aimed at, three year olds?

[samten54]

I want to be a bonobo!

[watchensee]

Aww bonobos are civalized people! Unlike us humans, and chimpanzees they use love rather then violence!

[Maphisto86]

Oh there is still plenty of violence among bonobo chimps.

[GirlMakesSomeNoise]

i've seen a video with this exact footage but and English voiceover and a totally different context.

[tasaraha2009]

yeah females rule

[TYUIO11111]

haha what a society compered to well really most of the animal kingdom pretty cool

[GuineaPro3]

eh narrir8or was kinda annoying

[marialigaya4991]

girl power applies also to monkeys

cool

[scrag10]

haha george bush joke = funny

[rent0n1]

Bro, your nation is the definition of insignificant.

Go cram a coconut up your ass.

[Astralnaut]

She chewed that up because it was to fiberous and tough for her baby to eat that bit of root.without the help of the mom masticating it first. It''s strange how these narrators but their own spin on it.

[pinkfreud326]

Agreed. It's not what I'd expect from a National Geographic video.

[eiphon]

At least human is still alot closer to monkeys than pigs

[iLikePieShowZ]

and you look like your moms hairy asswhole.

[Krumbz2003]

Real cool video! I just recently subscribed and am happy I did.

Keep em coming!

[BinkieMcFartnuggets]

Bonobos are creepy, if you've ever met one in person it's literally like looking into a mirror, in the dark,... while you're really drunk and crying with a swollen ass after it's been kicked repeatedly by people you don't even know.

[anzdf]

Los monos son muy tiernos con sus hijos, es hermoso verlos asi.

[Reverseflush]

Monkey turd maggot!

THIS IS SO SEXY!

Holy shit doodles!

I WANT SOME OF THIS ASS!

Dang!

[colorina1980]

[gittygittygoo1012]

[Chick6517]

That video was amazing. Can you explain to me how you got all of that on camera? Hahah, this is definitely a video to remember!

[freebearride]

[xtiger357]

[awtystanislas]

ya stupid ad, we cant even click on the video related hidden by the ad screen

[librano]

adblock + firefox... internet will never be the same again!

[Flyborg]

What the heck are they doing? .. Harvesting.. resources? Now if they could just figure out how to use those branches as a basic shelter. They already hunt small animals with sharpened spears. Just a few cultural innovations from being totally awesome.

[cosmic088]

Where do I get one? I'll feed it hay and teach it to smoke.

[893Productions]

they walk on two feet

[L0LUNIC0RN]

awhh, yay.

[carlingnugent]

The narrator really sucks.

[sverma84]

so thats how hillary clinton looks like naked!

[theuppercut]

That was actually a pretty accurate comment.

[stoneyfists]

Get rid of this narrator. Please.

[OLYMPIAisSPEAKING]

agreed!

[PseudoVoodoo]

"This babe is boss."

Yeah, until there's a jar of pickles in the mix! lol

[Neucleus]

No not "lol" bitch.

[PseudoVoodoo]

Do your existence some justice and eat my shit.

[teemuruskeepaa]

What if I said that it is morally wrong and stupid to follow your leader?

[waladghazali]

You would be projecting your human morality in apes who are not human nor moral at all.

[teemuruskeepaa]

Anthropomorphism?

[waladghazali]

I think so... :)

[jax1492]

she was like gtfo!

[IAmANewYearsEveBaby]

i think its really sexist how people are so suprised that female monkeys are the powerful ones!

[sXeXryanX]

They're not monkey's but you're right. Female are the dominant ones through out a lot of the animal kingdom and even in a few human civilizations. Including some of the most powerful Native American societies.

[hoaxcrank]

Gulp

[ariaofdreams]

"This babe is boss."  Hehehe.

[brutallyunbiased]

If I take a chunk of bark off my mom's plate, she would get pissed...spoiled monkey's.

[gloriousgod]

lol "babe"

[meamverysmart]

At :52 was the monkey kissing her offspring? Not sure if I've seen that before.

[DivaliciousChristina]

The Bonobos are a very highly sexual species, which includes sexual contact with both sexes as well as their young.

[meamverysmart]

That's... Weird. But still, most animals don't kiss.

[FreshmakerTV]

Boss Babe Haha Cool

[minomeshank]

jungle kittens

[alex3914]

Funny that our ancesters probably went through this phase of evolution too...

[Neucleus]

That's for some reason a dumb comment.

[niamtxiv]

Matriarchal society... many ancient civilizations were matriarchal society before becoming patriarchal society. Great video.

[Tetzukai]

Do you know where can I learn more about these matriarachal civilizations?

[solusito]

Plato wrote about it.

[Tetzukai]

Thanks.

[21blue64]

Try google

[Tetzukai]

No kidding...

[niamtxiv]

Some pacific islander groups and native american groups are matriarchal society. chinese ethnic group known as the Mosuo or Naxi are still under matriarchal rules.

[stephjuhler999]

It's so interesting to learn about things like this about our closest relatives.

[infiniteusername]

just like our society

[PineappleSex69]
