New steps and more staff training!

March 4, 2021 by Anna

Today has been a busy one for the staff so I will make this quick!

JB and Anthony spent the morning finishing up a quick but exciting greenhouse project. Check out these new stairs:
These stairs will make it easier for us (chimpanzees and humans alike) to access the upper platforms in the greenhouse. The chimps are always curious about new construction, no matter the purpose. Burrito spent a great deal of the morning on the fresh steps.

The staff agenda for the afternoon:

  • Furthering our Zoom PRT Training
  • A major spring clean of the cattle barn
  • Mountains of laundry to fold!
  • Did I mention that the chimpanzees will be expecting a prompt and timely arrival of dinner service?

I better go!

    Hi Anna!
    Did Foxie do her usual quality control check?

    My prediction: Missy says, “Stairs, schmairs!” And continues to swing onto that platform like Tarzan

      Aha some of the more agile ones 🙂 Also acceptable was to use an object as a foot stool.

    I have a funny feeling Queen Negra may just appreciate the new stairs.

    Thank you Anna.

    and thank you everyone for all the hard work that you put in everyday and the steps look great and I’m glad that Burrito approved. 🙂
