Troll Scarves & Cowboy Magazines

March 24, 2019 by Kelsi

Did you guys ever have rainy day recess? That is what today felt like, except the chimps did have access to outside. Some people like Jamie went on a few walks (or sprints with the Gator) but in general the chimps kind of all decided to spend most of their day at the top of the platform in the Greenhouse or playing in the Playroom. Today, I got a few special moments caught on camera. My favorite is Jamie wearing a troll scarf and reading a magazine with boots in it. As Jamie is flipping through her magazine Jody approaches her. Jody has a loose bottom lip and is a little pilo. Jody looks longingly into Jamie’s eyes. Jody reaches out to groom and hesitantly Jamie accepts the offer and they groom for about 10 minutes. After, Jody comes over to us caregivers for some reassurance and then climbs up the Playroom caging to nest. Jamie casually goes back to flipping her magazine like nothing ever happened.






Here are a few extra photos I got today!

Jody cozy in her nest:

Burrito with one of his favorite toys:


Foxie was very excited about playing troll toss, which was what happened immediately after these photos:

Foxie later took a nap on the floor but she had no use for blankets:

Happy Anniversary, Michael and Arlene!

March 24, 2019 by Katelyn

Today was sponsored by dear friend of the chimpanzees, Arlene, in honor of her husband, Michael, on their anniversary! Arlene shared this very lovely message about her gift:

“Today is our 29th Wedding Anniversary and I would like to sponsor today in honor of my husband. Michael I am blessed to share my life with you. Thank you for all you do for me and so many others, including animals as well as people. Love you always.”

Arlene and Michael, what a gift to celebrate so many years together! Happy Anniversary from all of us here! We’re so fortunate to have you as part of our chimp family and thank you, from our hearts, for helping to provide so many years of family and love for the chimps. Happiest of days to you both!

Burrito and Negra:

(Don’t worry, Burrito’s only yawning here 😉 ):
