Bonobo Habitats – Salonga National Park

Salonga National Park's bonobo habitats represent some of the last pristine rainforest environments where these endangered great apes live completely wild. Bonobos, found only in DRC, are humanity's closest living relatives (sharing 98.7% of our DNA) and are known for their peaceful, matriarchal societies. The dense rainforests of Salonga provide critical protection for these remarkable primates, though access is extremely challenging due to the remote wilderness location.
