A zine created in collaboration between myself (Daisy Jordan) and Ulysses Black. The blurb reads: "Here is the world's first mini-tractate on the sexual mores of the bonobo ape. Bonobos are renowned for their sexual freedom, and present a fascinating point of contrast to the testosterone heavy, patriarchal chimpanzee society with which we are more readily familiar. Presented here for the first time are a collection of collage illustrations detailing the sexual conduct observed within bonobo social interactions."

The bonobo is sometimes referred to as a "hippie chimpanzee" (though it is recognised as a species entirely of its own right); their society is matriarchal and generally peaceful, largely because they have replaced aggression with sex.

The zine is a humorous, playful look at the important role sex plays in bonobo society (with fascinating, true facts about bonobos), the creative positions they employ and a reflection on the boundary between ourselves and other animals.
