Chimpanzees are great apes which live in groups of 15d10 members, although foraging groups consist of 2d3 -1 animals. They can be aggressive, and have been known to actively seek out and attack other chimpanzee groups, and may pose a threat to those invading their territory. Chimpanzees are intelligent enough to make and use simple tools, and are able to solve moderately complex problems. Males weigh 7d10+80 pounds and females weight 5d12+50 pounds. Bonobo: Init +4; Atk bite +1 melee (1d3) or claw +3 melee (1d3); AC 12; HD 1d8; MV 30’ or climb 30’; Act 2d20; SP rend (if both claws hit, 2d3 damage), brachiation; SV Fort +2; Ref +4; Will +2; AL L. Bonobos are similar to chimpanzees, but they are less aggressive, more slender, and consume more ripe fruit and plants than chimpanzees. Bonobos have matriarchal societies with strong social bonding, exhibiting compassion and empathy for other members of their social group. Male bonobos weigh 2d30+75 pounds and females weigh 65+1d14 pounds on average. Other names: bonobos are sometimes called “pygmy chimpanzees”. Although they overlap with chimpanzees in size, they are slightly smaller and more slender on average.
