One of the reasons we call Negra the Queen of the Cle Elum Seven chimpanzees is that she knows exactly what she wants and when she wants it, and she makes sure to let us know. When she decides it’s time to eat – this can be anywhere from a few minutes before mealtime to an hour before mealtime – she goes up to the playroom loft where she has a clear view of the humans working in the kitchen, and employs a variety of techniques to tell us to hurry it up. Once the meal begins, Negra continues to do whatever she can to move us along at a pace that suits her.
