Best Answer

The genitals of the female Chimpanzee balloons into a giant pink swelling during her time of estrus. This is when she is most susceptible to becoming pregnant. The pink coloring and smell of hormones lets potential suitors know that she is receptive. The alpha male usually gets to mate first, followed by those who are aligned with him. Some younger males must mate in secret in order to avoid a fatal beating or exile.

Males attract females through a ritual known as "leaf cutting." They will pick a leaf from a branch and run it through their teeth, stripping the membrane from the stem. This creates a noise that will capture the attention of females in estrus. If the initial attempt fails, they will continue to strip leaves until the noise gets the attention of the females. Sometimes males will resort to shaking entire branches of leaves.

Female chimpanzees and bonobos, a close cousin, have a pink, melon-sized genital swelling that tells the males that they are receptive to mating.
