I recorded a video of a female bonobo drinking water from an empty Cola pod. Tool-aided drinking has only been reported in wild bonobos 4 times at Lomako with moss sponges. Here, we discuss the differences between the Pan species and speculate on ecological conditions driving extractive foraging.

Wild bonobos do not use tools for extractive foraging, unlike their closest relatives, the chimpanzees. In captivity, however, bonobos appear just as adept at tool use as chimps, suggesting that cognitive capacity is not the reason for the lack of behaviour in the wild.
