Otto and Anastasia are a bonobos from the book Endangered. These two bonobo are different from the other ones in the sanctuary. Otto and Anastasia are different in various different ways , although still surprisingly alike. To begin with Otto was treated ineffectively.Otto was started as an abandoned bonobo. His owner was cruel to him didn't take the time to care for Otto. Due to Otto's owner selflessness, he actively seeks poor Otto original home . Sophie was the one that took him in. She notices the walked falter or unsteadily as the result of how weak he was. Sophie was the one owner that has fixed up Otto, including getting him healthy. Otto was delighted to be with Sophie. War broke in the capital, which was when Sophie and Otto began their journey of survival. In conclusion the war was over. Time flew by and Otto had a family of his own and so did Sophie.
Additionally is Anastasia. Anastasia was around human her entire life. She would depend on a human for food along with shelter. However, Anastasia was kept safe from the beginning. She lived with Sophie's mother as a pet, one day she was too grown to fit in the house, therefore she was moved to be taken care in the sanctuary. When war broke Anastasia was lead by her current leader, which was Sophie. Even though there was scrimmage fight or disorderly fight between Pweto and Anastasia. Anastasia would still follow Sophie wherever she would go. Sophie needed to leave behind as long as the war was still on Sophie

They are alike of how the bonobos approbation or approval of the humans that were invited into their life.Even thought they had different leaders they both know how to access or approach also to communicate with humans.. They both got taken care of and both had great owners. Finally, those were the reason of how Anastasia and Otto are alike on the other hand also
One of the most prominent similarities between the two is the alienation they felt from their mothers. Despite the love they
Primates are one of the most interesting mammals on earth, not only because of their complex social structures, but because they hold so many similar characteristics to humans. Primates are often cited as our closest living relatives and on two separate occasions I observed four separate species of primates at the San Diego Zoo that can justify their use of their physical characteristics and behaviors that may be similar as well as different to the other primates and ours.
The last similarity between both main characters is that the two both have family and friends that they love, and would sacrifice their lives for. Katniss risked her life for Prim when she volunteered in place of her for the Hunger Games (Collins 22-23). Katniss has feelings for Peeta and cares for him when he is injured. Jonas learns to love, and loves Gabe, and protects him from being released. What is also interesting to note is that both characters have a younger sister, and parents they cannot be truly loved by. Both characters care deeply for and want to protect people they are
-Bonobo’s display a varied degree of sexual dimorphism, which is a characteristic specific to either male or female sex. When comparing the two sexes, males are more muscular and hold an average weight of 95 pounds compared to an average of 82 pounds and a slighter built female, a 15 percent weight difference between them. Sexual dimorphism is also apparent in that males possess a unique dental trait, long canines, a feature that females lack. Both sexes are similar in that neither has a height advantage, averaging 2.3 to 3 feet in height. (Waal 24) Bonobo’s possess long, fine black hair covering most of the body and black colored hands and feet. Their black faces feature wide, thick walled nostrils and long black facial hair that often covers their small ears. Their head hair
Another similarity they have is that each tale is full of culture. In each tale the magical aspects are culturally based. In Tam and Cam it is shown in reincarnation. It is a Buddhist based tale, it brings Buddha as the magic helping tool. As well as in The Algonquin Cinderella culture plays a major role. In the Native American culture they viewed innocence as goodness. They looked upon it as a life decision that was to be used. These also created the
Thus, I was able to observe some similarities among these species. The way the female chimp used tools, and her fingers to grab food, how she used to be on her feet, freeing her hands, groom her child, educate her offspring, sleep with him while snuggling, use a lot of face emotions to convey a message to an individual; she smiled at her baby, laughed when playing, and tickling him, remind me of human. She also has a flat pink face, hands’ palm, and feet sole as humans do. Furthermore, the gorilla was also really human when he protected his eyes from the intense sunrays, following the movement of the sun, and sat in the shade, mated with a female, scratched his head, and bottom, and put his finger in his nose. I think that these humans’ pattern appeared for similar reasons as in the Primates. For instance, when the gorilla scratches his bottom, it is because the area is itchy, and he wants to remove what is indisposing him. In addition, the mother chimp educates her kid to transmit knowledge throughout generation, which is the same for humans, who go to school.
The similarity and connection existing between the two stories is the point of view in the two essays. The stories are both written in the first person perspective and that
The book Endangered is about the journey of survival and the connection between a young American girl (Sophie) and a bonobo monkey (Otto) in The Democratic Republic of the Congo. Sophie’s mother lives in the Congo and runs a bonobo sanctuary. While on her way to the sanctuary to visit her mother for the summer, Sophie sees a man on the side of the road with a bonobo. She notices how malnourished and how bad the bonobo looks and against the rules of her mother, Sophie purchases the bonobo. When she reaches the sanctuary her mother is upset because even though she had good intentions of saving the bonobos life, bargaining with the man Sophie inadvertently promoted the illegal sale of the endangered bonobos. While at the sanctuary Sophie struggles to improve Otto’s health and a
Sophie Biyoya Ciardulli is the main character in the book, “Endangered”, by Eliot Schrefer. She is the daughter of Florence Biyoya, who is Congolese, and an Italian-American dad. Her mother had always thought of protecting bonobos as her top duty in life, so it was no surprise when she chose staying in Congo to develop her bonobo sanctuary rather than returning to the U.S. with her husband and daughter, after Sophie’s dad is transferred to Miami, Florida by his company for a job. Sophie attends school in America, but spends summers with her mother. Sophie had always been angry and hurt by the fact that her mother was the reason her parents divorced, but when she meets Otto, she transitions slowly in opinion and grows in acceptance of her mother’s
According to National Geographic, scientists have sequenced the genome factor of the chimpanzee and found that humans are 98.5% similar to the ape species. The chimpanzee is our closest relative in the animal kingdom; however, some people are not aware of our resembling traits with chimpanzees. Jane Goodall’s, In the Shadow of Man, describes some similar traits humans and chimpanzees have such as their facial expressions and emotions, use of tools, and diet.
Andrius is similar to Jonas and Lina because they all strive to return to Lithuania. They also all make sacrifices for each other. Andrius is similar to Lina because they both take things from the NKVD right from under their noses. Andrius is also similar to Lina because they both like each other. Andrius is similar to Jonas because they both are kind, caring people. Andrius is different from Lina and Jonas because his mother is forced to prostitute herself to save his life. These are ways that Andrius is different and similar from Jonas and
Similarities between these stories are that there are two young boys having a conflict with their family, and they both were caused by a misunderstanding. Another example is that both of these misunderstandings happened in the author's childhood. They both
This change caused her life in a horrible way epically how the way she acts The past experiences has a major effect on her, not only as a bonobo but as a mother. She is very cruel and harsh to the other bonobos especially to her daughter, Songololo. She also has a very mean attitude that causes problems. When the author states, “Songololo followed until the water went over her waist, then shrieked and climbed her clinging to her skull. Anastasia suffered the indignity, slapping Songololo only when her fingers went into her eye” (Schrefer 92). This states that Anastasia has problems, Songololo is only a child. She is learning from her and kids need to play around and have fun especially when they are around their mother. It’s her own flesh and blood. Another example, “ Anastasia had snatched him from the branch and bitten his foot . Then she threw him down and watched him fall.”( Schrefer 93). This states that she is unsympathetic ,having to hurt someone when they are playing around. This occurred as a punishment when Otto and Songololo were having fun . He was punished because Songololo was injured. She doesn’t realize what she is
The theme in both of these stories are very similar because of the thing that happen to both characters. Plumwood got attacked by the crocodile and Eckels was being charged at by a T-rex. There is a big similarity to these two stories that people can learn from on a daily basis. When guides tell you to do something you need to listen because they know what they are talking about. In both stories Plumwood and Eckels did the exact thing that their guides told them not to do which is what got them into the trouble they got in. That is why we have rules and safety regulations to keep people from getting
The similarities of both Olivia and Viola are that they are both involved in the small love triangle involving the two of them and Orsino. Orsino is in love with Olivia and sends Viola, who has disguised as Cesario, to go and deliver his love message to Olivia. Olivia falls in love with Viola thinking that she is a man. On the other hand, Viola has grown to be in love with Orsino. They all have affection for each other but those they have affection for do not give back the same affection for them, rather they prefer other people.
