COMMENTS: Sex & the Jungle
Lucky Dan Harris landed a trip for ABC with the World Wildlife Fund to the jungles of the Congo where a colony of bonobo apes--maybe 2,000 of them--has recently been discovered. "Hippie chimpanzees," was the nickname Harris repeated. "Bonobos are believed to resolve many of their conflicts over things like food and territory not through violence but through sex. The common chimpanzee can be ferociously violent but bonobos, who let females run the show, are much more peaceful."
