Bonobos

• Their skills: they can understand and reproduce human body language and symbols

The bonobo (historically called the pygmy chimpanzee and less often, the dwarf or gracile chimpanzee) is an endangered great ape in the genus Pan. They are closely related to the common chimpanzee, but are NOT a subspecies of the chimpanzee, but a distinct species. They can be found only in central Africa and are omnivorous.

It’s no secret that they are extremely intelligent creatures, especially since they are the closest extant relatives to humans, along with the common chimpanzee.
