How did we become the way we are?
5
00:00:35,036 --> 00:00:37,872
As humans, we spend our lives
6
00:00:37,872 --> 00:00:40,416
trying to understand ourselves.
7
00:00:44,754 --> 00:00:48,049
But sometimes it feels
we're too close to see clearly.
8
00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:57,350
That's why we love stories
from other worlds.
9
00:01:05,233 --> 00:01:07,401
And the world of chimpanzees,
10
00:01:07,985 --> 00:01:10,363

because they are real.

The Forest of Ngogo

And at its heart,
25
00:03:22,328 --> 00:03:24,330

[chimp grunts]
39
00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:33,024
Chimpanzees are our closest
living relatives.
40
00:04:36,944 --> 00:04:41,240
We share more than 98% of our DNA.

They are highly intelligent.

And highly emotional.

[young chimp grunting]
47
00:05:00,718 --> 00:05:03,637
They can live to over 60 years old,
48
00:05:04,388 --> 00:05:07,808
and the stages of their lives
are similar to ours.
49
00:05:13,064 --> 00:05:15,733
Every chimp at Ngogo is an individual...
50
00:05:18,444 --> 00:05:20,946
with their own unique personality
51
00:05:21,489 --> 00:05:22,740

To reflect this,
54
00:05:26,702 --> 00:05:31,457
scientists have given
each and every one of them a name.

[grunts]
56
00:05:45,346 --> 00:05:48,224
Ngogo society is sophisticated.
57
00:05:53,729 --> 00:05:57,441
It's a complex network
of family and social bonds...
58
00:06:00,861 --> 00:06:04,115
where each chimp
has to forge relationships
59
00:06:04,115 --> 00:06:06,242
and find their place in the group.

Most chimp groups
number 50 or 60 individuals.
62

But here at Ngogo,
63
00:06:22,341 --> 00:06:24,009
there are twice that number.
64
00:06:24,677 --> 00:06:28,097
Over 120 chimps living together.
65
00:06:30,349 --> 00:06:32,810

[music becomes rousing]
67
00:06:40,526 --> 00:06:43,446
Ngogo is a chimpanzee paradise.
68
00:06:49,910 --> 00:06:52,413
There's a huge amount of fruit trees here.
69
00:06:56,333 --> 00:07:00,838
And fruit is the lifeblood
of chimpanzee society.

[grunting]
71
00:07:10,514 --> 00:07:14,101
With so many chimps
all trying to make their way,
72
00:07:14,101 --> 00:07:15,644
there's a lot of competition.

[menacing music playing]
74
00:07:18,063 --> 00:07:21,734

[chimp whooping in distance]
76
00:07:27,740 --> 00:07:30,117
Ngogo society is a hierarchy.
77
00:07:31,035 --> 00:07:34,413
And the chimps are
always looking for opportunities
78
00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:36,332
to move up.

But he's getting old for an alpha.
90

If he's going to stay on top,
91
00:09:06,964 --> 00:09:08,465
he can't show any weakness.
92
00:09:14,638 --> 00:09:16,640
He needs to display strength.

This is what Jackson wants.

110

But Jackson is well aware
111
00:11:13,298 --> 00:11:17,010
that some chimps
are showing less respect than others.
112
00:11:22,307 --> 00:11:26,937
A chimp this age should be too young
to pose a real challenge to Jackson.

{\an8}It's how they create

It's the chimp equivalent of conversation.

00:13:06,078 --> 00:13:07,287
It's highly political.

00:13:44,408 --> 00:13:46,326
Grooming forms alliances.
136
00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:54,209
And alliances create power.
137
00:13:59,548 --> 00:14:01,466

He needs to find some friends.

In the Forest of Ngogo,
158
00:16:17,602 --> 00:16:20,814
it's not wise

For this age, she's much stronger

But she's still very vulnerable.

At Ngogo, not all babies
make it to their first birthday.
167
00:17:21,249 --> 00:17:22,292
And for that reason,
168

she won't be given her name until then.
169
00:17:35,347 --> 00:17:38,225
Christine has to focus on the baby,
170

The real test for Gus

372
00:43:13,634 --> 00:43:15,886
And they've noticed something
in the treetops.
373
00:43:15,886 --> 00:43:17,971
[music becomes foreboding]
374
00:43:20,223 --> 00:43:24,061
The Ngogo group doesn't tolerate
other chimps in their territory.
375
00:43:24,061 --> 00:43:26,104
[high-pitched hooting]
376
00:43:31,318 --> 00:43:34,112
But they do share the forest
with other primates.
377
00:43:38,742 --> 00:43:42,162
Including several large groups of monkeys.
378
00:43:45,207 --> 00:43:46,541
[dramatic music playing]
379
00:43:55,634 --> 00:43:56,927
[music trails off]
380
00:43:56,927 --> 00:43:59,930
Monkeys aren't rivals to chimps.
381
00:44:01,598 --> 00:44:02,557
They're food.
382
00:44:04,768 --> 00:44:06,770
[high-pitched squawking]
383
00:44:10,732 --> 00:44:12,734
[chorus of shrieking]
384
00:44:16,113 --> 00:44:18,031
[dramatic music playing]
385
00:44:34,005 --> 00:44:35,382
[screeches]
386
00:44:37,843 --> 00:44:39,052
[music abates]
387
00:44:54,401 --> 00:44:57,946
Meat is a welcome source
of nourishment for chimps.
388
00:44:59,239 --> 00:45:01,032
But that's not its only value.
389
00:45:04,619 --> 00:45:07,247
The sharing of meat is important socially
390
00:45:08,415 --> 00:45:09,541
and politically.
391
00:45:13,211 --> 00:45:15,213
Jackson shares with his allies.
392
00:45:16,423 --> 00:45:19,634
And more than anyone else,
he shares with Miles.
393
00:45:21,928 --> 00:45:23,221
At the same time,
394
00:45:23,221 --> 00:45:25,348
he purposely leaves others out.
395
00:45:40,238 --> 00:45:43,617
Abrams' exclusion is a sign that, for now,
396
00:45:44,326 --> 00:45:47,829
Jackson still holds power at Ngogo.
397
00:45:49,915 --> 00:45:50,999
[dark music playing]
398
00:45:50,999 --> 00:45:52,667
[flesh squelching]
399
00:45:54,419 --> 00:45:55,921
A victorious patrol
400
00:45:55,921 --> 00:45:57,547
and a successful hunt.
401
00:45:57,547 --> 00:45:59,758
[flesh squelching]
402
00:46:01,343 --> 00:46:03,553
Today's been a good day for Jackson
403
00:46:04,346 --> 00:46:06,223
and for the Ngogo chimpanzees.
404
00:46:16,316 --> 00:46:17,651
[music fades out]
405
00:46:25,200 --> 00:46:27,077
[poignant music playing]
406
00:46:29,955 --> 00:46:33,250
Monkeys are an important resource
for the Ngogo chimps.
407
00:46:37,921 --> 00:46:42,634
But the most important resource
will always be fruit trees,
408
00:46:43,301 --> 00:46:45,971
the foundation of Ngogo society.
409
00:47:10,912 --> 00:47:14,583
A fig tree has come into fruit
in the center of the territory,
410
00:47:15,083 --> 00:47:18,628
and the chimps can relax
and enjoy a feast.
411
00:47:22,340 --> 00:47:23,717
[music continues]
412
00:47:28,096 --> 00:47:29,723
[chimps hooting]
413
00:47:59,920 --> 00:48:01,129
[music fades out]
414
00:48:01,963 --> 00:48:05,300
Gus has spent a lot of his life
watching from the sidelines.
415
00:48:07,010 --> 00:48:08,720
He's more observant than most.
416
00:48:10,013 --> 00:48:12,140
And quick to spot anything unusual.
417
00:48:30,951 --> 00:48:32,953
[soft melancholic music playing]
418
00:48:38,833 --> 00:48:39,918
[hoots softly]
419
00:48:41,336 --> 00:48:43,338
[music intensifies]
420
00:48:46,967 --> 00:48:48,009
[chimp hoots]
421
00:48:51,888 --> 00:48:53,556
[music intensifies]
422
00:49:03,650 --> 00:49:04,859
[chimp grunting]
423
00:49:54,701 --> 00:49:56,703
[music intensifies]
424
00:50:00,331 --> 00:50:01,332
It's Pork Pie.
425
00:50:11,551 --> 00:50:14,763
[calling softly]
426
00:50:26,232 --> 00:50:28,651
- [music intensifies]
- [chimps shrieking, calling]
427
00:50:40,455 --> 00:50:41,706
He was caught alone...
428
00:50:44,250 --> 00:50:45,960
and killed by a rival group...
429
00:50:48,046 --> 00:50:50,381
right in the middle of Ngogo territory.
430
00:50:58,807 --> 00:51:01,226
If a chimp can be killed here...
431
00:51:01,226 --> 00:51:02,727
[chimp hoots softly]
432
00:51:04,813 --> 00:51:06,564
...it means this forest kingdom...
433
00:51:07,190 --> 00:51:09,109
[hoots softly]
434
00:51:10,693 --> 00:51:12,195
...and all the chimps in it...
435
00:51:16,241 --> 00:51:17,534
are no longer safe.
436
00:51:18,993 --> 00:51:20,995
[chimp crying]
437
00:51:24,749 --> 00:51:26,042
[crying continues]
438
00:51:35,760 --> 00:51:37,470
[music fades out]
439
00:51:38,221 --> 00:51:39,722
[bird chirping softly]
440
00:51:39,722 --> 00:51:41,349
[insect buzzes]
441
00:51:50,900 --> 00:51:53,278
[chirping fades out]
