A very special meeting of Frans and another of the world's great ambassadors of bonobos- Claudine André, founder of Lola ya Bonobo Sanctuary, DR Congo. In 2018, Frans joined me for a research visit to the world's only bonobo sanctuary- a place we have been doing research since 2011. It was an amazing trip and a huge honour to see Frans in situe with the bonobos. A highlight was seeing Frans together with Claudine- the two bonobo enthusiasts are like kindred spirits, with a shared passion for bonobos and wish to advocate for them
here a pic of them both in Lola ya Bonobo
