Free-living chimpanzees make their sleeping nests out of branches in the treetops. At CSNW, the chimps have a few more options. Here’s a private view of what Negra used to make her nest last night. Note the peanut shells – remnants of her favorite treat!
i do love the first picture … negra has everything she needs for a complete night of activity prior to and after … sleep …
Brilliant photos!
What a happy gal she is–such a lovely nest!
Looks like Neggie has everything she needs for a good night’s sleep and plenty to keep her occupied if she isn’t sleeping. Quite a nest, Negra girl!
I feel as if we’ve stumbled upon Negra’s secret stash. It’s as if she doesn’t want us to see her playing, during the day, but from the look of her goodies she makes up for lost time during the night.
How’s Foxie’s nest-building skills these days?
Neggie has everything she needs including snacks and entertainment. She’s quite intelligent ya know!
these are brilliant pics , a real insight into what our chimps might take comfort from and enjoy in their nests 🙂
