National Watermelon Day!

August 3, 2021 by Chad de Bree

Today is National Watermelon Day! A day in which we celebrate that delicious sweet summertime treat. Watermelon is the perfect treat during hot summer days because they are comprised of 92% water and are delectable.

Today, we decided to give the chimpanzee residents some of this delicious fruit for lunch and as an afternoon snack served up on some crushed ice!

Missy eating her lunchtime watermelon.

Cy enjoying his while trying to convince the humans to also play with him.

Negra about to dig in to her watermelon shaved ice.

Mave enjoying her iced treat.

Honey B inspecting her watermelon ice boat…

Before digging in.

Terry snacking on his afternoon snack.

Jamie being served her watermelon boat.

I was able to get that photo, before I was promptly reminded that is wasn’t photo time, but play time.

And as a bonus, a photo I took of Lucky watching me from the other side of the window as I cleaned the Mezzanine today.
