The wars in the Congo have caused a severe depletion in bonobo numbers. They are easy to find, bands seem to stay in defined territories, and they've been hunted for food.

That almost seems like cannibalism.

After all we (chimps, bonobos and humans)are all hominini.

A few years ago there were rumours of "true" cannibalism in the DRC forests anayway, pygmies (of the homo sapiens variety not bonobos that used to be called pygmy chimps)would have been killed and eaten in order to be completely destroyed.
