Better Late than Never

January 3, 2020 by Kelsi

As promised, but a tad bit late, we have the video of the ten chimps ringing in the New Year! I have to be fully honest, I did not realize how big of a year 2020 was. It totally slipped my mind that we were celebrating a decade! Whoops! Anyhoo, I hope you all enjoy the video and some photos of Burrito!

Burrito had a play date with Jamie, Jody, and Foxie. Foxie and Burrito immediately started grooming one another and continued for a few hours. It was a very sweet moment.

    These chimps know how to party !
    I especially enjoyed Foxie’s 2 fisted drinking style, reminds me of some my family members 🙂

    I hope Neggie got more than a couple of drops of that cider! Seems to be the favorite of all! Good to see her playing, even if she’s just sitting in one spot.
    Funny that she’s still the roundest, considering how much she loves that lettuce!
    Thank you, Kelsi!
    Countdown to Bubba’s birthday bash! Will Pasta cam return or not?! Stay tuned, folks!

    Seeing Negra, Jody, and Foxie wrestle and play like goofballs made it worth the wait, thanks Kelsi! Photos of getting-better-every-single-day Mr. B are sincerely appreciated too. The last two photos with Foxie are priceless. What a lucky boy to share such deep bonds with his family.

    I’m glad they enjoyed the cider. It’s one of my favourite tipples!

    A good video, as usual, and yet…how I wish that the last four months could be returned for a refund: No fights and life-threatening injuries among the chimpanzees in Cle Elum, and no idiotic humans in Germany causing a zoo fire due to a change in the calendar. %*#@!, I hate being a member of the human species, sometimes (and sometimes, rather frequently).

    Some good news, at long last. I hope that this is a good portent for Burrito as a 37-year-old…teenager. (I thank Jody for hugging Bub in my absence).

      Oops…i meant to leave the previous profundities on the blog post with Burrito’s walkabout on Young’s Hill. As the Sage of Aberdeen (Washington) famously sang), “Oh well, whatever, never mind…) (Geez, I feel stupid, and contagious…).
