Fall Play

September 20, 2008 by Diana

Today was the first day that actually felt fall-like. It was overcast, windy and chilly. I wondered if the chimpanzees would stay inside all day to avoid the cooler air. Here’s a video that answers that question. Annie is the first chimp in the video, Missy is wearing a sock on her left foot (she often puts on a sock or t-shirt when she’s feeling playful), and Jamie is wrestling with Missy under the structure. You can hear the wind in the camera’s mic.

    Love to see them with so much room to run around! I wonder what they will think of the snow when it comes? 🙂

    Love that sock! They are having so much fun. I agree Audrey I can’t wait to see what they think of snow.
