The first project I filmed with Kanzi changed my life forever and was my favorite video on the channel, and now we get to pass the torch to Teco and continue to show you all what these incredible animals are truly capable of. The team and I have poured our souls into this video and we couldn’t be more excited to share the thrills of teaching an ape to fly planes with all you. As always… Thank you SO much for watching!

Ape Initiative is the only research facility in the world dedicated to the study and conservation of bonobos. It is a federally-recognized non-profit 501(c)(3) and is accredited by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums as a Certified Related Facility. Filming within Ape Initiative was done with professional supervision at all times. Bonobos are very endangered in the wild, with only around 15,000 left – which is in large part due to the pet trade. In this video, you see Teco engaging in human activities as part of his daily enrichment, but he is by no means a pet at Ape Initiative. ⚠️ It is important to remember that bonobos and all other great apes are NOT pets. Flying the planes (and any other touchscreen activities) is one of many enrichment activities that Teco can choose to participate in to have fun and make his day more interesting. The door is always open, so he can choose when to start and stop playing. 🎵 Music licensed from Lickd. The biggest mainstream and stock music platform for content creators.
