Personally I love the mornings, however I know many people who are not. The chimps have preferences also! When I walk into the chimp house in the morning I can often find Negra in bed, Missy & Annie playing, Foxie running around, Burrito fully charged for the day, Jamie waiting to instruct us to put boots on, and Jody may or may not still be in bed. Today I walked into the chimp house to find Foxie and Burrito happily wrestling and tickling each other.

I would become a morning person if I could start my workday seeing Foxie and Burrito laughing and playing like this!
My thoughts exactly! Although, given the strength of a chimpanzee, I’m not sure if I would enjoy having Foxie slap me atop my head like she does in this video…alas, the sensation sure seems to give Burrito the giggles.
So true! And the thought of actually getting a head pummeling from Burrito cracked me up! Maybe that’s the chimp version of a strong espresso.
What a great play session! I’ll have to watch at home where I can put on the sound (folks here at work don’t quite know what to make of the noise laughing chimps coming from my corner…).
This video is so endearing. To see them tickling each other is so funny and I love those spins!!!
When they were clapping hands it reminded me of the game that the kids play at school during recess.
That made me laugh and giggle, warmed my heart. Thank you.for providing them with what they need to heal and be happy.
