Chimp aped a human on flight
The three-month-old ape had his own animal export documents for the Lufthansa flight from Birmingham to Frankfurt but was given a special pretend passport complete with his name and picture.

Wrapped in the white cotton security blanket he has been nursed in since he was born, Bili could have been mistaken for a baby as he clutched on to his new keeper.

The bonobo, a species formerly known as the pygmy chimpanzee, was rejected by his birth mother Maringa at Twycross Zoo in Leicestershire, The Daily Mail reports.

He had to be be hand-reared by staff until he was old enough to join a new bonobo group at Frankfurt Zoo, where the female bonobo has been trained in fostering.

Bonobos are one of the four Great Apes, are on the endangered list and are only found in the wild in one country; The Democratic Republic of Congo - where there are estimated to be less than 10,000 left.

Bili was named after a river in the region.
