Never Dull!

August 21, 2024 by Kelsi

It’s never a dull day when working with chimpanzees, each individual is so their own and also has their own agenda for the day! As you will see in the video, most days Gordo just wants to go on the Bray not giving his caregivers a second look, but on this day Gordo decided it was time to play chase with his caregiver from the chute to the Bray. While, Terry just wanted to give sweet kisses in the morning. I think we all know Honey B’s agenda is to derail the schedule for her caregivers as much as possible, as she should! But she also tries to carve out alone time with one of her close friends, Dora, which can often play into derailing her caregivers schedule, too. She is such a multitask-er :)!

Though somethings may “derail” our day, it’s also the fun part about our job. We don’t know what we are going to walk into, but what we do know is that everyday they are provided with as much choice as possible!

I just love her eyes in this one:

And a very snoozy Willy B! So snoozy I don’t think he even knew I took this photo:

Thank you, Donna and Doreen!

Many thanks to Donna, and in our hearts and memories always, Doreen, Hughes: for sponsoring today in honor of their beloved New York City and their beloved chimpanzee friends.

“Always love sponsoring a day to celebrate the day my sister Doreen and I moved to NYC. Of course, I wish my better half was still here enjoying the Big Apple, but I am always happy to celebrate this great day with a Sponsor a Day. Let’s have some Foxie Fun! Dor and I always love being Foxie’s Pal every year. Thank you, CSNW, for all that you do for all of the residents! Bring on the Foxie One!!!”

May today bring all the good memories your way, Donna. We’re always thankful to you and Doreen for sharing your lives and beyond with Foxie, and all who call the sanctuary home.

Foxie!:
