Abstract
After a brief review of the climate and forests of the central basin of Zaire, some observations on the ecology of the bonobo chimpanzees of the Lake Tumba region are presented. It was found that the bonobo is wide ranging and lives in small groups in the Lake Tumba region. Data on their social structure, nesting behavior, locomotor behavior and feeding behavior are presented and discussed.Keywords
