Don’t know if somebody else may have asked this question: Do the other chimps understand when one of them has “a special day”? How is that handled? Best to you all!!!

I’ve wondered that myself. Even so, having seen videos of Burrito’s birthday celebrations (available in the archives; I recommend viewing them, especially the beautiful food squeaks emitted forth by the birthday boy on his 29th!), I am given to infer that he knows that there’s a special day for him in mid-winter. Perhaps today’s birthday girl associates all of her smoothies and troll days that are set out as evidence of a special day just for her.

Great question!
The chimps all love a good party, usually because it means lots of delicious food! They might not necessarily know it’s for them specifically, but we make it fun and special for them by putting out those things that we know that individual loves. Of course, any party must be shared by the whole group 🙂

This video should be titled “Chewing with Foxie”! So funny the way she stores up each piece of primate chow in her lip while she is chewing on another one. I also giggled when she ran into the greenhouse and instantly grabbed a doll and tucked it into her thigh for safe keeping.
It is always such fun to experience birthday parties from a far and this was no exception. Happiest of Happy Birthday’s to you dear little Foxie! I am blowing raspberries in your honor. You are surrounded by love and people who care deeply for you — looks like your wishes have come true. All my love XOOX.
