There's a bonus episode of Clint's Reptiles where he relates a story about some of his colleagues training bonobos. He said they had a much harder time with them than the chimpanzees, because you can't give them the kind of...positive social signifiers...that they expect without ending up in jail. So to bonobos, you're a rude asshole.
Bonobos are the coolest of that family- no inter tribal rivalry, no canabilism and no violence- because they settle every dispute by getting physical in a frisky sorta way
Oh they can be very aggressive when a male trespasses on a female. Her whole support group will come to her side...often with consequences for the male
Great episode! I wish only to add about African spotted dogs, who are also led by a reigning female and her consort male. Her daughters can try to test her dominance, which usually results in building a new clan or a deadly conflict.
The elephant and bees idea is so ingenious! Like, people might have thought a huge wall, barbed wire, electric fence, night guards, etc. But then someone was like "what about a bunch of bees?" 😂😂😂
@@teedjay91 They do hunt other primates. It's been on the books for awhile, 2008 or so. The frequency is low and the hunting groups are likely to include individuals from male and female groupings.
To be fair, humans also eat other primates sometimes (I'm referring to the bush meat trade, not cannibalism; any omnivorous or carnivorous animal will resort to cannibalism if desperate enough.)
I saw an article on women in professions a few years ago. As I remember, Thailand had the highest % of female CEOs at about 42%. Female doctors there are 45%.
Gotta love those moments that the filmed or photographed animal decides to literally stand on the photographer to have a look around from their vantage point!
King Julien should have been Queen Julienne. I was told Madagascar was an excellent documentary with David Attenborough but when i got the DVD it was unconvincing CGI and full of factual errors like this.

Our Second Nature series covers a wide range of animals and their behaviours. We have a spotlight video on bonobos here: ua-cam.com/video/3TcCPhdsESM/v-deo.htmlsi=djhp9VReFKa1Wh3m
Domestic (and feral domestic) cats also raise their babies communally, at least if the Mums are related mother/daughter/sister families. I think this has also happened (in my roof!) with raccoons, but while there were lots of babies and two adults, I never actually witnessed the raccoons birthing or nursing.. In the case of honeybees, the queen bee is the breeding (egg laying) female but if she begins to fail, the group knows it is time to replace her. She doesn't have any power and will be replaced by one of her own daughters at the choice of all the worker bees.
they dont rly need to be related or even the same species tbh. i’ve even seen a mother rabbit and a cat birth their babies in the same box and the cat would let the rabbits nurse on her and care for them just like she did her own babies. cats just instinctively adopt babies ig, probs why u can give orphaned kittens to any nursing mom and she’ll usually adopt it instantly
@@nckojita It’s because of the hormones in the cat’s body after giving birth. The mothering instinct is very strong. I’ve even seen footage of a lioness that had lost her cubs mothering a young gazelle or wildebeest. The young didn’t suckle, unfortunately, and it died.
@@kellydalstok8900 the mothering hormones are truly wild tbh. i feel like domestic cats have it intensified as a result of domestication making them more social or smth though i’ve even seen male cats lay down and allow kittens to suckle on them for comfort. but man once they’ve given birth they truly will adopt ANYTHING lol
I would have to respectfully disagree that the elephants are coming in contact with us. I think it’s humans that are invading the spaces of the elephants. When will we stop … is the question?
@@drachior The massive overpopulation of human beings have been crowding out wildlife for generations now. When we lose the diversity of life on this planet, all life on this planet will suffer. We are currently in a massive extinction period, losing hundreds, if not thousands of species every year because of human encroachment into their habitats. It would make more sense to curb human reproduction to a more sustainable level before we lose all the diversity and wonderous wildlife on the planet.
Respectfully, you’re ignoring nuance, modern humans have been inhabiting Africa for as long as we’ve existed, especially parts of sub Saharan Africa and some ancient human species have arisen just a few million years long before certain elephant species including the African elephant even. My point is, the idea of “invading” the natural habitat eg. Deforestation, overhunting and human induced climate change is a more recent addition to our environmental and political affairs especially involving and regarding elephants caused by things such as capitalism such as its role in the consumerism of elephants in the black market and for humans and elephants to peacefully and ethically coexist with one another is entirely possible, and has before till the addition of capitalist induced factors, so humanity itself isn’t the inherent issue
@@Cooch13p13 Human being numbers were minute, tiny compared to what they are today. Human beings were prey for many predators for thousands and thousands of years as well as the lack of any medical intervention for disease and injuries. Humans are so numerous today that we are crowding out wildlife like never before in our history.
And thank you for finally telling about the real structure of lioness prides ❤️ By the way, Asian lionesses live in female-only prides, mating with males who are then not allowed to stay. Perhaps there are more resources where they live, or this is just more beneficial in another way.
I found an old chimpanzee drawing I did on pen when I took a drawing class back in 2010. Nothing compared to the way I make art now. Brings back memories!
Bonobos are my favorite non human primates because they make love and not war, bonding and settling disputes with affection. It's the kind of life I've always wanted to live.
People often don't talk about it but lionesses actually kill pups too. and it's not the case of there are too much cubs to raise or that they are sick etc. they kill other lionesses cubs. its not just the male lions that kill cubs, its female lions also kill other prides cubs on daily basis. thats why lion population doesn't recover as fast as it should. 😅😅
But, if too much land is claimed for farming AND surrounded by bees, I feel it STILL ISNT FAIR TO THE ELEPHANTS. We humans are encroaching on their land. This “natural solution “ can become “natural manipulation “
They have plenty of space and food, they just want the nutrient dense and stockpiled easy to get food, wich isnt good either. Unless they are domestic individuals they should never be relying on humans for food, not even by raiding farms. Though i agree the farms should probably not be as big and make better use of the space and soil.
Shout out to all the amazing women in the world. Every day at work I'm so glad to have a mixed workforce and talented women in leadership positions. We're all in this together ❤️
Aye. As a woman. Shoutout to the wholesome men in the world. Those who helped me become a better person and learn. Who gave me space to try and prove and improve myself without judgement in both workspace and the gym baby!
I love several things about this episode from a narrative perspective that deserve credit beyond the cool animal knowledge. Mainly the fact it released on Women's Day but decided to make a showcase not of how non-human female-centred are exactly like male-centred ones, full of violence, oppression and hierarchy, but that there is a wide range of behaviours. Humans have been inspired by all kinds of animals, not just are closest cousins, to justify certain behaviours: this speciesist language can be easily seen in the ways men defend the patriarchy against feminist influences. This video also makes very clever use of stock footage from decades ago to make a point about the awfully sexist ways of society to the extreme, but ask yourself: how much of these things are still being said even if they have to be hidden behind sophisticated-sounding language? Besides, how often have we heard the story of lion prides centred around male ego, macho attitudes, just assuming that the lionesses would just let their cubs be killed by a new dominant male? This kind of story-telling is so important because it uses animals as symbols of what our human society is capable of: yes, mothers will cooperate and not let their children get hurt, not by upstart males of their own species or others.
If the problem is elephants are losing out on habitat because of human expansion, I don't see how the beehives thing, which just keeps them off human-dominated land, is a "solution", though it might be one part of one.
Is anyone thinking that this video was absolutely unhinged?! We just watched a video that has nothing to do with bonobos... instead, we watched 1930's clips and animals being queens and then 30 seconds of bonobos... WE WANT BONOBOS
Sorry, but in social ruminant ungulates dominant males are dominant in mating, while the herd is actually being led by a matriarch, an elder experienced female who knows places and dangers and it is she who signals that the herd may stop and graze. Why? Because last year's dominant male may become sub-dominant in a couple of seasons, while the herd need a steady leadership that does not depend on mating fights. This is more than beneficial.
Yes and chimpanzees wages war between tribes/groups and: We humans are the middleground of both of them: we have huge capacity for love and compassion and equally huge capacity for warfare and brutality if the needs demands for it. As a woman in Sudan said: "if my children screams because of hunger and you found food but only enough for your children, you children will mourn you and mine will survive."
Another group of mammals that exibit matriarchy are horses. The common beleif of the stallion being the leader is wrong as it is the lead mare that leads the herd.
09:50 Orcas, too. Their pods consist of a matriarch leading mostly males, while young females swim off to form their own pods. Interestingly this implies that orcas and bonobos have some awareness about the dangers of inbreeding, though I'm not sure how.
Lions are not the only cats to live in groups the every day house cat or farm cats also share responsibility for young often sharing nursing them equally
- 15:21 I am not sure if that is a good or bad thing. How about not messing with the elephants home to begin with? These people should go find *OTHER* land && let them do their thing instead of building farms && than having to have bees scare them away. Just a suggestion 🙄.
(( just wanna point out if no one has that male lions love to love each other and they mate and groom and snuggle and spend most of their life with each other, if they ever get a chance at running a pride it is a fleating part of that male lions life, and the females only keep him around for cub making, and protecting the then born cubs from rival males))
Is non-violent theft of land really better than alternative? The nicer it is, the easier it is to spin, the less push back there will be to us further expanding ourselves at the expense of almost every other species on the planet. But hey, I'm frequently told by people that I'm overthinking something, so you can too.
Tbh humans do allot of abandoning of infrastructure to build new stuff instead of fixing what we do have and making the most of it. Some places are working on massive vertical cities that will house food and people alole and become like a self contained ecosystem of humans and our food to save space for wildlife
@@hrpdrp97 I've seen few decent vertical cities. They're usually way too narrow and tall and insufficiently incorporate suitable infrastructure, but yes, there is gradual movement. However, with existing socio-economic and political systems, I wouldn't live there, too easily deleted, with the world happy to manufacture consent.
@@hrpdrp97 Yea, I've been thinking about this (as part of a broader attempt at a sustainable way for us to live happily), there's a bunch of "oh, crap" that gets overlooked, but far more "oh, wow". I just don't know if we're worth sustaining 😢
🇧🇷🇧🇷 How many houses and families you know , are organized without a diligent WOMAN to take of care of them? Just one woman can provide for her and five kids; a man , no rare, connot provide even for himself. 🇧🇷🇧🇷
They do though? Both live in mid and central africa, more chimps than bonobo though. But to be fair, pretty sure NO ONE wants to share territory with Chimps.
@@jybrokenheartedYou don't know, maybe female bonobos would teach female chimps how to take control of their sexuality and weaponise it against male chimps
Bonobos can only exist like this because they live in a bubble. They’re separated both from chimps and natural predators. The moment they were exposed to chimp families they’d be dominated or killed. They’re physically weaker than chimps too.
@@coopernoble6139 yes, to an individual ant. That's how U-social animals work. It doesn't matter if you personally like how ant colonies work, that doesn't magically make the success of the species suddenly dissappear.
They were meaning that the matriarch hyena lets her cubs eat a kill before her grown daughters can, putting them higher on the rank than the older daughters. I'm sure the older daughters got the same benefit when they were cubs, so I'm not sure how they are worse off than their younger siblings. Although, this "silver spoon" privilege would leave a litter better off reproductivly than they would have been otherwise. Or better off than a litter born to a hyena other than the matriarch, if they even do that, idk.
seems like most patriarchal species are about the strongest or largest individual while most matriarchal species are about the wisest. This could be a statement. Not saying it is, but it certainly could be.
And why are these structures as they are? Just showing them without explanation is a bit disapointing. Why for example is the male elephant not staying with the group?
Was checking Wikipedia on the topic of lions in both my native tongue and English and am surprised about the different information found. Some examples: In my native language it is clearly stated, that there's a ranking order in the pack where the males are higher ranked than the females. Nothing like this is mentioned in the English Wikipedia. On the other hand in my native Wikipedia article I can't find any mention how the higher ranking is recognized/ with what benefits a higher rank comes. In my native tongue Wikipedia article it is also mentioned, that the female choses her partner for reproduction. Couldn't find that info on the English article. But the English article puts a lot of effort into sharing information about group sex and homosexual behaviour. I'm too lazy to follow those rabbit holes deeper. I just wanted to share my experience on how different Wikipedia articles can be in different languages.

I, for one, welcome our new female overlords.
Equality is impossible because everyone is unique.
Happy International Women’s Day Animalogic! I see what you did there. Always enjoy second nature videos too. This is the best channel.
I just want to compliment our host for her lovely personality and voice. Very pleasant and enjoyable. Be well, Ma'am!
Today I learned lions can climb trees.
Elephants are smart. Bees’ stings are painful.
How about doing a series on all kinds of primates the way you did on small cats?
(( just wanna point out if no one has that male lions love to love each other and they mate and groom and snuggle and spend most of their life with each other, if they ever get a chance at running a pride it is a fleating part of that male lions life, and the females only keep him around for cub making, and protecting the then born cubs from rival males))
That feels like interpretation rather that observation
Is non-violent theft of land really better than alternative? The nicer it is, the easier it is to spin, the less push back there will be to us further expanding ourselves at the expense of almost every other species on the planet.
But hey, I'm frequently told by people that I'm overthinking something, so you can too.
Tbh humans do allot of abandoning of infrastructure to build new stuff instead of fixing what we do have and making the most of it. Some places are working on massive vertical cities that will house food and people alole and become like a self contained ecosystem of humans and our food to save space for wildlife
@@hrpdrp97 I've seen few decent vertical cities. They're usually way too narrow and tall and insufficiently incorporate suitable infrastructure, but yes, there is gradual movement.
However, with existing socio-economic and political systems, I wouldn't live there, too easily deleted, with the world happy to manufacture consent.
@@ChrispyNut very true honestly. Tbh I didn't think about how easy a mass killing can happen when everyone is in the same building like that.
@@hrpdrp97 Yea, I've been thinking about this (as part of a broader attempt at a sustainable way for us to live happily), there's a bunch of "oh, crap" that gets overlooked, but far more "oh, wow".
I just don't know if we're worth sustaining 😢
If Homo Sapiens didn’t breed so fast, the species wouldn’t need so much land. Better management of agricultural land would help too.
i want to hear about fruit bats! they're one of my favorite flying mammals!
Alright. Not about bonobos.
I thought this was about bonobos
Maybe talk about the spider viper
Make love not War fits perfectly for them.😊
youre one of my favorite pages thank you
🇧🇷🇧🇷 How many houses and families you know , are organized without a diligent WOMAN to take of care of them? Just one woman can provide for her and five kids; a man , no rare, connot provide even for himself. 🇧🇷🇧🇷
Pretty sure you've already done at least one video about domestic cats, buit aren't they also group animals?
How about the arctictis binturong
Bonobos are lucky that they don't have to compete with normal chimpanzees
They do though? Both live in mid and central africa, more chimps than bonobo though.
But to be fair, pretty sure NO ONE wants to share territory with Chimps.
Bonobos would go extinct
Bonobos and Chimpanzees are divided by the Congo river they don't share living space @@TheKiroshi
@@jybrokenheartedYou don't know, maybe female bonobos would teach female chimps how to take control of their sexuality and weaponise it against male chimps
Bonobos can only exist like this because they live in a bubble. They’re separated both from chimps and natural predators. The moment they were exposed to chimp families they’d be dominated or killed. They’re physically weaker than chimps too.
STD apocalypse.
Which species gained global domination? That’s what I thought.
Ants.
yep egalitarianism is the way to go
@@stuffynosepatrol pretty sure ants live in complete subjugation to an individual. No thanks.
@@coopernoble6139 yes, to an individual ant. That's how U-social animals work. It doesn't matter if you personally like how ant colonies work, that doesn't magically make the success of the species suddenly dissappear.
Did you say the younger ones have longer lifetime reproductive success?
I feel like that doesn't make sense
They were meaning that the matriarch hyena lets her cubs eat a kill before her grown daughters can, putting them higher on the rank than the older daughters. I'm sure the older daughters got the same benefit when they were cubs, so I'm not sure how they are worse off than their younger siblings. Although, this "silver spoon" privilege would leave a litter better off reproductivly than they would have been otherwise. Or better off than a litter born to a hyena other than the matriarch, if they even do that, idk.
seems like most patriarchal species are about the strongest or largest individual while most matriarchal species are about the wisest. This could be a statement. Not saying it is, but it certainly could be.
I’ve noticed this too.
And why are these structures as they are? Just showing them without explanation is a bit disapointing. Why for example is the male elephant not staying with the group?
Because who else will he boink? His sisters?
@@mouse9831 as u see in the video there are species who handle this quite well
Was checking Wikipedia on the topic of lions in both my native tongue and English and am surprised about the different information found. Some examples:
In my native language it is clearly stated, that there's a ranking order in the pack where the males are higher ranked than the females. Nothing like this is mentioned in the English Wikipedia. On the other hand in my native Wikipedia article I can't find any mention how the higher ranking is recognized/ with what benefits a higher rank comes.
In my native tongue Wikipedia article it is also mentioned, that the female choses her partner for reproduction. Couldn't find that info on the English article. But the English article puts a lot of effort into sharing information about group sex and homosexual behaviour. I'm too lazy to follow those rabbit holes deeper. I just wanted to share my experience on how different Wikipedia articles can be in different languages.
Bonobo's are awesome
As a middle aged man I'm convinced we would be better off if we lived in a matriarchy society - Less wars and more caring of each other.
