Pan paniscus, commonly known as the bonobo, is endangered primarily due to habitat loss, poaching, and the illegal pet trade. Deforestation for agriculture and logging has significantly reduced their natural habitat in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Additionally, bonobos face threats from hunting, which is driven by demand for bushmeat and the illegal wildlife trade. Conservation efforts are crucial to protect their remaining populations and habitats.
