Before we begin the blog, let’s play a game!
Can you spot the fierce predator stalking this herd of deer?
Answer will be at the end!
Now onto the blog!
As much as we try and would love to be everywhere to capture the chimpanzees throughout the day, we can’t. It really is unfortunate because outside of what gets published in the blog, there are hundreds of moments during the day that are amazing. Though we can’t be there to get photos or footage, every now and again we are lucky enough to glance over to the security cameras and see what some of their day consists of.
Here are some bonus photos from today!

Negra went out onto Young’s Hill this morning to check out the new climbing structures J.B. and Jake are building
On her way back inside, she ran into a potential snack. Literally!
But alas the young pine was not willing to be uprooted for her

Were you able to find the fierce hunter earlier?
It’s Barn Kitty!
Barn Kitty (aka BK) is such a fierce individual. He doesn’t seem to be intimidated by size. I once watched him hide behind some tall grass and stalk J.B. as he was driving the tractor up hill. If he had the chance, I 100% believe he was weighing his options of pouncing; tractor or no tractor!
