Oh don’t stop, I could watch that all day long. How intriguing seeing each chimps reaction to the jumbo mirror — Burrito’s especially (melted my heart!), with his pal Foxie reaching out to him. What a great gift. Every day should be Giving Day for Apes. They are so deserving.

You people never cease to amaze me with your creativeness. Seeing Burito kissing his image brought out a loud “aw-wwww” from me. Whoever thought of that idea should get a bonus in their paycheck this week.
I am glad that Burito loves himself. He should! He is an awesome creature of the God of the Universe.
Jesus loves him too!

Great stuff! What a gift. It will be interesting if it will be something of a novelty or that they will return to again and again. Do you plan on keeping it up all the time?
Do you also use sound as part of enrichment? When they were moving the mirror, I thought what they would think if it made a sound when moving, like bells or something, that dissipated as the movement slowed.
We do plan to keep it up, so, yes it will be interesting to see how they interact with it over time. We might move it around to different places for novelty. This particular pre-made mirror did not have sound incorporated, but we do have other enrichment that includes sound.

You are amazing to think of a mirror. I so enjoyed watching the video. It is a real heart warmer. Worth watching over and over. These guys are very lucky to have you taking care of them. They are beautiful animals. Thank you for all you do for them.
