Young Bonobo - What You Probably Never knew About This Animal - Pen Drawing (067)
Hello everyone!
This is another drawing I made from my Animal Series and the animal is called Bonobo. It is from the specie of ape and family of chimpanzee. Bonobos can also called be pygmy chimpanzee. According to resaerch, wild bonobo can only be found in forests south of the Congo River in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Source
Bonobos share about 98.7% of human DNA. They are human closest primate - they are closer to human than gorillas are. They are known to self medicate and can also kiss each other. Source
The work was done with a blue ballpoint pen on paper. I first sketched out my model before add shades. Below are my steps:
Thank you.
I saw a video about a Bonobo playing with its child and it really looks like a human mother playing with her child, the resemblance is uncanny
Yeah, that's why I love drawing these kinds of animals. I haven't watched the video though.
