Chimpanzee Sanctuary Northwest

Hope. Love. Home. Sanctuary for primates.

A beautiful day

by J.B.

There’s just something about a warm, sunny day in the middle of winter that makes you appreciate the great outdoors a little bit more. Last Monday, as people all over the Pacific Northwest were putting on shorts and flip flops and laying out in the sun, the chimps were enjoying the day in their own way.

Jamie, Foxie, and Dora the Explorer:

    I don’t care how many times I look at the “gang” outside with the grass and the trees and Cle Elum vista in the background, I am always amazed and so grateful that they have this life now.
