Playing chase with Missy

February 5, 2009 by J.B.

Missy loves to play chase outside. It’s not fair for us humans, though. The outdoor enclosure is built into a hillside, so while Missy just runs from one side to the other on flat ground, we humans have to run up a hill, around the back side, and back down again. Meanwhile, we can hear Missy laughing in anticipation of our arrival. When we finally get there, Missy has already taken off again.

As fun as it is for us to play chase with the chimps, we much prefer when they play together.

    I noticed on the Wish List that you need a 4-drawer filing cabinet. I have one in my basement workroom that I’d be happy to donate if anybody is headed out your way from somewhere near Kirkland. I bought it used a few years ago and isn’t especially pretty, but it works perfectly well.

    It’s like having a gym membership & Missy is your personal trainer. 🙂 She will keep you all in shape! Thank you for the great photos!

    Missy is making sure you get your daily exercise. Wouldn’t you love to know what they think when they are playing with you? Hmm…wonder if I can get that human to do this?

    Beautiful pictures JB. You capture their images to invite us all in to play with them. I can hear the hoots and the feet as they romp through the grounds.
