Today, I spent some time with Honey B in silence.
When I’m one-on-one with a chimpanzee in a quiet moment, I find myself trying to communicate to them through my gaze or just my presence.
I want them to know that I’m so sorry for every bad thing that’s happened to them.
I’m sorry that humans took so much away from them.
I’m sorry that they will never know what it’s like to live free.
I want them to know that this place is all about giving them the best life we can.
And that I love them unconditionally for the unique person they are.
