Today is in honor of “Best Buddies”

January 16, 2016 by Katelyn

Today’s day of sanctuary was sponsored by an anonymous supporter on his wife’s birthday in honor of “Best Buddies.” To our anonymous supporters, thank you so much! This is such a lovely sponsorship and in celebrating your best buddy, you honor the chimpanzees and those they hold dear, making it possible for them to experience life as they deserve. And we are immensely grateful for that. All of us here at the sanctuary wish you both a day of joy, comfort and love as you celebrate! And Happy Birthday!

Best buddies come in many forms and are not exclusive to human relationships. Whether on the go, at rest, or even having a disagreement, Annie and Missy are never far from one another’s side:

    Wonderful theme for a Sponsorship Day! What a sweet grouping of photos of the truest BFF’s.

    Who is that just peeking up from the bottom the last photo? Jody?

    I love the two BFFs holding hands! ????

    Don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone say so, but since Burrito seems to literally be the odd goofman out (????), does he have someone in particular that would classify as his BFF?
