We provide the chimpanzees at the sanctuary with a wide variety of enrichment to enhance their daily lives. The great thing about enrichment is how flexible it is!
Some enrichment (and often the most popular kind) involves food…
A forage helps exercise the chimps’ bodies and minds:
Enrichment can also have nothing to do with food…
A daily rotation of toys and other objects give the chimps new things to play with and look at each day.

Enrichment can be large and permanent!
Enrichment can be tough and durable…
Or naturally sourced…

While some enrichment might require a bit of money and assembly time to create…

Other types of enrichment can be quickly created from recycled materials!


Making enrichment for chimpanzees relies on a little bit of imagination and creativity. If you know someone who works with primates and would like to share ideas with us, please feel free to direct them to our enrichment database!
