The Light Reading Chronicles Continue

July 6, 2021 by Sofia Castro-Loza

Yesterday, fellow caregiver Anthony gave us great insight on the history of magazines and provided some amazing pictures AND a video of Sir Cy enjoying one of them. Today has been no different for Cy. While all the other chimps in his group were resting or perched in the top platforms of the green houses, Cy has been carrying around the same magazine since 11AM. We give them so many to choose from that I found very interesting how much this one magazine has caught his attention today. He would move from enclosure to enclosure with the same one. I managed to get him on camera skimming through it with such intensity in his eyes while hanging out in the second level of their play room. The magazine of the day was not about famous artists or gossip, but about food! As a highly food motivated person, I can say his content of choice today is on point. Great choice, Cy!

Here he is holding his magazine pick of the day in one of their green houses.

He then brought it back inside to the play room. Look how concentrated he is, I bet there’s a really good recipe on that page. My current goal is to retrieve said recipe, once he is done with it, of course!

Dora, forever a huge fan of the platforms in their green houses.

Gordo was all about his feet while perched on one of the platforms.

EXTRA: A beautiful Rayne spotted standing on one of the barrels, she was probably on some sort of undercover mission.
