As of 2009 it had an estimated population of 19,601.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Congo (Dem. Rep.): largest cities and towns and statistics of their population )〕 A branch line of the now-defunct Vicicongo narrow gauge railway terminates on the south bank. The railway branch line from Aketi was made by the Belgian state in the 1920-th. The town has an 1300m airstrip, but is relatively inaccessible by other means as it is served only by earth tracks impassable after heavy rain. River crossings on Uele is made by canoes. Navigation on the Uele is restricted by cataracts. Bondo is a base for reaching the Bili Forest lying on an earth track going east from the town. The Bili chimpanzee found in the forest has in the past been called the 'Bondo Mystery Ape'. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bondo, Democratic Republic of the Congo」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
