Tug of war

August 9, 2009 by Elizabeth

Games of tug of war happen pretty frequently between humans and chimps here at CSNW (any guesses as to who always wins?), but extended bouts of chimpanzee-chimpanzee tug of war are less common.

    Neither one of those girls were going to let go were they. I kept waiting for Jamie to let go suddenly and Foxie would fall back into the outside area.

    Foxie is none the worse for wear after her birthday bash!

    I love watching the chimps play! I thought one would let go too, I just couldn’t decide which one. Both fooled me…LOL.

    Me too T!!! I could sit all day and watch them. I wonder how long that “tug” lasted???

    Well now I see that there are some trolls tied onto that rope! No wonder Foxie wouldn’t let go….even for Jamie!

    What I like is that as opposed to human games of tug of war, there’s plenty of time to sit and look around, see what else is happening, think about stuff, etc.
