As Sofía mentioned last month, we were hesitant to give the newly formed group of chimpanzees their smallest enclosure back. Now that Front Room 7 is back in action, we often find multiple chimpanzees choosing to gather in this space for social and relaxation sessions. We can often hear laughter echoing down the hallway from this room as we write the blog! When designing a sanctuary, you just never quite know where the popular “club houses” will be. I guess it just highlights the importance of following the chimps’ lead and letting them have as much choice in the matter as possible.
Looks like a fun space to me — can’t get too far away from each other. I wonder how many chimps can pile into that space at one time for a play session? I always adore the musical choices you folks make since they really enhance the experience of watching the videos. This choice was perfect!
must have been a chilly day with the group inside…………………..
Wow, video 3 days in a row! You guys are spoiling us, Sofía! Thanks!
Great video, great music (even though I feel like some of that chimp laughter was loud enough to be heard through the window!)
My apologies! Thanks, ANNA!
Is there anything better than meeting up with your best pals at your favorite place and being silly?! What a goofy group. (And I love your soundtrack!)
What a wonderful video! I so appreciate the time and effort all of you put into these blogs and videos. For me, they are so meaningful, because I love these chimps and can’t get enough of them!
