It's Pork Pie.

For this to happen,
8
00:00:44,879 --> 00:00:47,465
the killers had to enter
the territory unnoticed.
9
00:00:52,887 --> 00:00:55,098
Only one other group could have done this.
10

[music intensifies]
24
00:02:17,013 --> 00:02:20,725
The chimps of western Ngogo
are a separate group
25
00:02:22,226 --> 00:02:23,728
with their own territory.
26
00:02:28,316 --> 00:02:30,026
The westerners are different.
27
00:02:35,489 --> 00:02:38,826
Their group is much smaller
than Jackson's central group.
28
00:02:41,621 --> 00:02:43,247
But they stick together.
29
00:02:44,415 --> 00:02:46,125
And that gives them strength.
30
00:02:54,884 --> 00:02:56,093
[music fades out]
31
00:02:57,011 --> 00:02:59,388
There are just eight adult males

compared to 24 in the central group.
33
00:03:04,727 --> 00:03:06,020
So the females
34
00:03:07,021 --> 00:03:08,731
stand together with the males
35
00:03:09,941 --> 00:03:11,734
and help defend the territory.

He doesn't dominate in the same way.
39
00:03:30,711 --> 00:03:33,422
Here, power is shared more equally.

00:03:34,298 --> 00:03:36,300
[gentle music fading in]
41
00:03:37,176 --> 00:03:40,513

He has a map
of the entire forest in his head.

If there's food to be found,
51

For that,

Ripe fruit

is the most important food at Ngogo.
73
00:06:40,276 --> 00:06:41,277
And right now,

Chimps will always try
to expand their territory if they can.

And they do it
119

[baby grunting rhythmically]
190
00:18:37,325 --> 00:18:39,161
They need more territory.
191
00:18:42,539 --> 00:18:43,498
And more food.
192
00:18:49,546 --> 00:18:51,548
[whimsical music playing]
193
00:18:56,011 --> 00:18:58,013
[music becomes somber]
194
00:18:58,763 --> 00:19:02,767
They are in conflict
with a bigger, more powerful group.
195
00:19:05,854 --> 00:19:07,814
So the odds are stacked against them.
196
00:19:09,691 --> 00:19:10,567
For now.
197
00:19:14,237 --> 00:19:15,655

[playful squealing, grunting]
199
00:19:45,310 --> 00:19:47,437
The western group might be smaller...
200
00:19:50,982 --> 00:19:51,983
but it's united.
201
00:19:51,983 --> 00:19:53,568
[whimsical music playing]
202
00:19:58,949 --> 00:20:00,909
There's a strong sense of togetherness.
203
00:20:07,916 --> 00:20:09,167
And support.
204
00:20:17,300 --> 00:20:20,637
Garbo is the oldest chimp at Ngogo.
205
00:20:23,765 --> 00:20:27,435
Sixty-five is an incredible age
for a chimpanzee.
206
00:20:31,523 --> 00:20:33,858
And she still plays her part
in the community.
207
00:20:47,831 --> 00:20:49,916
It helps that her son is the alpha.
208
00:20:51,835 --> 00:20:55,755
With him to look out for her,
Garbo has a good life...
209
00:20:55,755 --> 00:20:57,716
[music fades out]
210
00:20:57,716 --> 00:20:59,634
...and is treated with respect.
211
00:21:12,689 --> 00:21:14,065
Garbo has another son...
212
00:21:20,947 --> 00:21:21,781
Richmond.
213
00:21:22,741 --> 00:21:24,826
Who also takes care of his mother,
214
00:21:25,744 --> 00:21:27,245
despite his own problems.
215
00:21:30,540 --> 00:21:31,750
As a young chimp,
216
00:21:32,542 --> 00:21:35,503
Richmond lost his hand
to a poacher's snare.
217
00:21:36,713 --> 00:21:38,715
[whimsical music playing]
218
00:21:45,513 --> 00:21:48,308
Even though everything in the forest
is more difficult...
219
00:21:58,234 --> 00:21:59,736
he hasn't just survived,
220
00:22:00,236 --> 00:22:01,237
he's prospered.

[somber music playing]
222
00:22:10,413 --> 00:22:13,166
Richmond was once the western alpha,
223
00:22:15,085 --> 00:22:17,587
until his younger brother
replaced him at the top.
224
00:22:23,343 --> 00:22:25,095
But he still has power
225
00:22:26,429 --> 00:22:27,430
and influence.
226
00:22:37,315 --> 00:22:38,608
[music fades out]
227
00:22:42,320 --> 00:22:44,989
The small number
of adult males in the west
228
00:22:45,824 --> 00:22:49,411
puts them at risk if their rivalry
with the central group escalates.
229

[hoots]
230
00:22:56,501 --> 00:22:58,420
There are younger males on the way up.

{\an8}But the journey can be difficult.
232
00:23:11,724 --> 00:23:13,351
Bergl is an orphan,
233
00:23:14,144 --> 00:23:15,979
so he's had to grow up quickly...
234
00:23:17,105 --> 00:23:19,190
- [hooting softly]
- [playful music playing]
235

...and find ways to get by.
236
00:23:24,028 --> 00:23:25,613
But as an adolescent male,
237
00:23:26,448 --> 00:23:29,826
he's changing
and wants to start asserting himself.
238

[music becomes solemn]
239
00:23:40,003 --> 00:23:42,505

[Bergl screeching]
245
00:23:59,230 --> 00:24:01,524
He's beginning to attract attention.

[music fades out]
248

[dark music plays]
250
00:24:16,706 --> 00:24:20,084

[shrieking, hooting]
253
00:24:32,138 --> 00:24:35,892
Bergl's little displays
are enough to get him in trouble.

[music fades out]
261
00:25:15,807 --> 00:25:19,602
One day, Bergl's aggression
might help the west against their enemies.
262
00:25:22,814 --> 00:25:25,483
For now, he's been put in his place
263
00:25:26,484 --> 00:25:28,736
and has picked up a nasty hand injury.

{\an8}Joya is also an orphan.

[yawning]

Her maternal instincts
are starting to develop,

and she wants to help out
with the infants.

[baby grunting]

[baby shrieking rhythmically]
281
00:27:21,474 --> 00:27:24,435
Unlike Bergl, when it comes to Joya...
282
00:27:26,437 --> 00:27:27,980
everyone is very tolerant.
283
00:27:36,030 --> 00:27:39,325
And there are experienced mothers
she can use as a role model.
284
00:27:46,916 --> 00:27:49,085
Carson already has two children.
285

And she's pregnant again.
286
00:27:56,926 --> 00:27:58,136
She's a good mother,
287
00:27:59,178 --> 00:28:01,848
but here in the west, she has to be more.

And she hunts.

[music intensifies]
292
00:28:19,824 --> 00:28:21,826
The westerners hunt as a group.
293
00:28:21,826 --> 00:28:24,203
Males and females,
294
00:28:24,829 --> 00:28:25,913

[trilling continues]
299
00:28:59,530 --> 00:29:02,742
Black-and-white colobus monkeys

[hooting]
301
00:29:10,041 --> 00:29:11,876
They're fast and agile.
302
00:29:15,630 --> 00:29:16,964
And to catch them,
303
00:29:16,964 --> 00:29:18,925
the chimps must work together.
304
00:29:25,348 --> 00:29:26,516
[music intensifies]
305
00:29:29,727 --> 00:29:31,312
Hunting is tough for Richmond.
306
00:29:36,234 --> 00:29:38,194
But he knows it's worth keeping up.

in the treetops.
314
00:30:19,193 --> 00:30:20,736
If Richmond wants his cut,
315
00:30:21,696 --> 00:30:23,656
he'll need to go up and claim it.

[whimsical music playing]
321
00:31:14,415 --> 00:31:16,375
Garbo was too old for the hunt,
322
00:31:17,251 --> 00:31:19,837
but that doesn't mean
she can't get a share.
323
00:31:36,896 --> 00:31:39,815
Garbo provided for Richmond
as he was growing up.
324
00:31:42,026 --> 00:31:44,028
And now he provides for her.
325
00:31:48,950 --> 00:31:50,576
Life can be tough at Ngogo.
326
00:31:51,744 --> 00:31:53,621
And having a family to rely on
327
00:31:54,872 --> 00:31:56,499
can make things a little easier.

[somber drum beat plays]

Most chimps have a strong bond
with their mother.

00:32:37,289 --> 00:32:39,750
But Bergl has no family.
331
00:32:47,341 --> 00:32:49,635
All male chimps go through this stage.
332
00:32:53,264 --> 00:32:55,933
And they all get

Bergl is spending time alone.

00:33:34,638 --> 00:33:36,724
It's not just bonding he's missing.

Bergl is still alone.

And he's become sick.

00:35:36,844 --> 00:35:39,513
His face is infected by a parasite.

But in this state,

[music continues]

As they get older,
371
00:37:31,166 --> 00:37:33,335
male chimps become less aggressive
372

and more caring.
373
00:37:40,134 --> 00:37:41,093
And sometimes,
374
00:37:42,261 --> 00:37:45,014
they'll step in to take care of an orphan.
375
00:37:50,477 --> 00:37:52,646
The western group needs Bergl.
376
00:37:53,939 --> 00:37:55,899
But if he's going to find his place,
377
00:37:55,899 --> 00:37:58,402
he'll need to learn
to control his aggression.
378
00:38:03,741 --> 00:38:06,910
And with a chimp
as experienced as Garrison to support him,
379
00:38:07,911 --> 00:38:08,746
there's hope.
380
00:38:09,496 --> 00:38:11,540
[gently uplifting music playing]
381
00:38:18,839 --> 00:38:21,925
Joya is spending
more and more time with the infants.
382
00:38:22,551 --> 00:38:25,387
- [rhythmic hooting]
- [baby squeaking]
383
00:38:27,222 --> 00:38:28,432
She's learning.
384
00:38:28,432 --> 00:38:31,518
And when the time comes
to start her own family,
385
00:38:31,518 --> 00:38:32,811
she'll be ready.
386
00:38:38,942 --> 00:38:41,153
Bergl and Joya are finding their way.
387
00:38:43,614 --> 00:38:47,117
Slowly learning to play their roles
in chimp society.
388
00:38:48,827 --> 00:38:50,829
[music becomes stirring]
389
00:39:01,632 --> 00:39:03,884
That society needs to be sustained.
390
00:39:06,595 --> 00:39:08,931
So, like every day of their lives,
391
00:39:09,431 --> 00:39:12,893
the westerners must set out
to search for food.
392
00:39:32,830 --> 00:39:34,832
[music fades out]
393
00:39:37,042 --> 00:39:39,545
Damien has discovered something.
394
00:39:41,797 --> 00:39:43,799
And it's not an everyday piece of fruit.
395
00:39:48,720 --> 00:39:49,888
It's Chrysophyllum.
396
00:39:52,641 --> 00:39:55,519
The rarest, richest bounty of Ngogo.
397
00:39:58,814 --> 00:40:01,817
It appears in a massive crop
once every few years.
398
00:40:01,817 --> 00:40:03,652
[music reprises]
399
00:40:07,030 --> 00:40:08,198
It's unpredictable,
400
00:40:09,158 --> 00:40:10,534
and when it happens,
401
00:40:13,454 --> 00:40:16,331
it provides more food
than the chimps can eat.
402
00:40:25,174 --> 00:40:26,550
[music fades out]
403
00:40:31,263 --> 00:40:33,307
Most of the Chrysophyllum trees
404
00:40:34,016 --> 00:40:35,350
lie over the border
405
00:40:36,727 --> 00:40:38,228
in the central territory.
406
00:40:39,438 --> 00:40:41,356
[somber music playing]
407
00:40:41,356 --> 00:40:43,025
[shrieking]
408
00:40:47,821 --> 00:40:51,325
But the western males know
exactly where to find them.
409
00:40:51,325 --> 00:40:53,410
{\an8}[tremulous string music playing]
410
00:41:01,126 --> 00:41:02,711
Because for many years,
411
00:41:03,670 --> 00:41:04,963
those trees
412
00:41:05,881 --> 00:41:07,174
and that territory
413
00:41:08,342 --> 00:41:09,843
belonged to them.
414
00:41:19,228 --> 00:41:20,729
{\an8}[music intensifies]
415
00:41:22,314 --> 00:41:23,941
And now the time has come
416
00:41:25,484 --> 00:41:26,610
to take it back.
417
00:41:27,277 --> 00:41:28,278
[hooting softly]
418
00:41:28,278 --> 00:41:31,281
[hooting loudly]
