Bonobos really violate a rule of nature where usually if you're bigger, you're going to be dominant. But here, females are actually smaller. But they're still not dominated by males because they work together.

Bonobos don't really have that darker side. So that's where they could really help us is how could it be that a species that has a brain a third of the size of ours can do something that with all our technological prowess we can't accomplish? Which is to not kill each other.

Bonobos may have a brain that's a third the size of ours, but they're remarkably intelligent.

Bonobos are unique among great apes because they are not dominated by males.
