Put the lime in the coconut

July 26, 2008 by Sarah

A special volunteer brought the chimpanzees an exciting treat today – whole coconuts! We put the coconuts (and some Key limes) out with their enrichment and watched as they found them. Missy was by far the most skilled coconut-opener. Here’s a video of her working her magic.
