What eats a bonobo?

Answer 1

Bonobos eat mostly fruits (40-90% of their diet) and vegetables, but will also eat shoots, leaves, flowers, seeds, barks, pith, herbs, insect larvae, and earthworms. Bonobos do not aggressively hunt mammals. On rare occasions, they have been observed to capture duikers (small antelope) or flying squirrels. They are also known to eat termite clay for essential minerals, and have been recorded to eat 113 different types of plants per year.

According to the New York Times, "The menu for bonobos at the San Diego Zoo includes bananas, broccoli, cabbage, collards, corn, celery, grapes, green beans, kale, lettuce, melons, onion, papaya, pear, spinach and turnips."

Bonobos are also known to eat a large amount of Terrestrial Herbaceous Vegetation (THV) which they consume to provide their main source of protein (duikers are a delicacy).

Answer 2

The bonobo is an omnivorous frugivore. The majority of its diet is fruit, but supplements its diet with leaves, and occasionally meat from small vertebrates. They are able to climb trees and pull the fruit down.

Answer 3

Bonobos are omnivores, meaning they eat both plants and animals. Meat is, however, a very small portion of their diet since the area in which they live is full of protein rich plants.
