Foxie and Jamie’s epic play session

May 1, 2010 by Diana

When Foxie first came to the sanctuary, she was pretty shy. It was clear she did not want any of the toys, blankets and other objects that we gave the chimpanzees every day. Then, she adopted a troll doll, which we named Trixie.

That’s when the troll soap opera began. At first, Foxie was very protective of her dolls and did not want anyone else to touch them. She’s come a long way.

In the video below, she is teasing Jamie with a game of keep-away. Foxie still has her limits, though, when it comes to her prized possessions. And perhaps Jamie has softened up a bit when it comes to Foxie and her dolls.

It’s a longer video than normal, but it will make a bad day good and a good day better, so take a break for a few minutes and watch it.

We remember him today because May 1st was his celebrated birthday at Fauna. Please read more about him from our December 18th blog post. We will never forget you, Tommy.
