We have another gracious gift from Rachel Ruggeri this week of a day of sanctuary. Rachel shared this lovely message of celebration:
“I am dedicating my 49th birthday to the Gang of Seven and all the great lessons they teach me about living! My year of “wellness” starts with remembering that true happiness comes from enjoying the small things in life…similar to the way the Gang of Seven embrace each new day and experience. Their exuberance for life teaches me how best to just be…”
Happy Birthday, Rachel! We hope this is the best one yet! We’re so happy to celebrate such a special a special day with you and hope your year and life ahead are filled with chimpanzee style inspiration and joy.

Happy Birthday Rachel! Thank you for sharing with the chimps. Great photos!
Happy birthday Rachel!
The picture of Annie and Missy sitting together is so heartwarming. Love this gang!
Such great pictures of Foxie, Jamie, Jody, and Missy and Annie. I gather that Annie and Missy enjoy each other’s company, and that Jody is fond of watermelon.
I gather that Jody has an appetite for watermelon, no? These are all are beautiful photographs; I especially admire the picture of Annie and Missy perched together on the platform.
