In memory and celebration, from Marya

April 24, 2020 by Katelyn

This day of sanctuary for the chimpanzees and cattle was sponsored by Marya Barey in honor of her parents’ love of nature and animals:

“My parents were both nature lovers and shared that love with me from a very young age. I am very grateful for this aspect of my early experiences and all the times we shared talking about animals and in nature together.”

Thank you so much, Marya, for reaching out to make a difference in the chimpanzees’ lives in memory of your parents. It’s such a beautiful continuance of their legacy through your own heart and we’re so happy to share in honoring them here today. They sound like such lovely humans.

We’d also like to extend the happiest (of slightly belated) birthday wishes to you and hope your celebration was somehow made even brighter from the chimps’ Love a Chimpanzee Day party. Happy Birthday!

Burrito and Jody:

    I adore that photo of the chimp eating lilacs. So happy. Unfortunately, I still can’t tell them apart, but I know that’s neither Burrito nor Negra. Can someone please identify that lady for me? Thanks.

      Hi Maureen – it takes some practice. 🙂 That’s beautiful Jody eating the lilacs!

      Hi Maureen…I have somewhat compromised vision so frequently find myself squinting & fussing over “who is who”…It’s much easier for me to identify them each when I see them together as a group… : )

    Nutmeg is beautiful. Maureen, don’t feel so bad. I still can’t identify any of the chimps and I’ve been looking at this site for several years.
