Today’s video features Dora showing us a great way to swing into the New Year!
This past year has been a good one at Chimpanzee Sanctuary Northwest. Some of the most memorable moments in no specific order are:
- The integration happened between the Willy B’s and Cy’s groups making them a group of 9 chimpanzees: Rayne, Lucky, Mave, Honey B, Dora, Willy B, Terry, Gordo, Cy!
- Young’s Hill expansion was finalized!
- Missy and Jamie climbed trees for the first time ever!
- The chute’s expansion that connects the front rooms, the Bray, and the green house was finalized and it is a big hit!
- Hoot! was held in person for the first time since 2019!
- The Comfort and Joy! auction was a success!
- Grace and Jenna joined the caregiving team!
- Caregiver Kelsi got married to the love of her life, Adam!
Wishing everybody a happy and safe New Years Eve,
All of us at CSNW

Hi there! I just sent the corrected version. Happy New Years Eve!
You have a good (albeit chilly) one, too! Is someo e getting your arroz con gandules ready?
Li’l Dora is like Missy–tiny but spunky! I am so happy their grip strength doesn’t fail them, from those high places–I think the same when I see Foxie spinning on the windowsill. My heart would be in my throat.
And soeaking of Foxie, sounds like there was drama on the other side of the house tonight!
I hope you all have a pleasant New Year’s Eve! Stay safe and warm!
Love the video. Thank you so much and Happiest of New Years to all of you!!
Looking back, all in all, the sanctuary had a year full of happiness, success, and accomplishments galore. As I recall, the biggest worries were the surgeries for Burrito, Negra, and Willy B. However, even those ended up being successful outcomes!
Here’s to 2023….the best is yet to come. 😉
Happy New Year!!! Little Dora is having too much fun!!! Such the little gymnist she is!!!
