To prepare for the show, Lori Skelton -- sitting in for Jean this week -- took a day trip to the Milwaukee County Zoo which houses a national rehabilitation and research center for bonobos. Here's a behind the scenes video of the bonobos at the Milwaukee County Zoo waiting to meet the newest member of the group. They'll spend part of the day in the holding area getting used to the new bonobo's smell. Then, one by one, starting with Lodi (caretaker and friendly alpha male), the bonbos will head out into the open air to mingle with the new bonobo.
