Morning Play With Annie And Burrito

July 26, 2025 by Krissy Brasfield

Often times, while cleaning, we hear the joyful sound of chimpanzee laughter.  How are we to continue when, nearby, chimpanzees are tickling, biting, poking, kissing, wrestling and pinching each other into hysterics!?

Today was one of those days!

Spend some time with Annie and Burrito and you’ll be sure to have a smile on your face!

    They’re having the best time ever. It’s fun to see them hanging out together and playing

    They are so silly! I just love watching them play like kids and that was quite the play session!
    I do love how Annie got distracted by the TV when the food was shown. I guess she’s a fan of cooking shows?
    Of course, any fun must be strictly supervised by the Party Police!

      The game paused when that fridge opened! :laughing:

    What a fun play session. I wonder if Burrito and Annie’s sides hurt from laughing so hard! I love Annie in profile. All the fuzzy fluff at the back of her head. These two are so funny together, the laughter and belly pushing grunts are not dampened by the scrutiny of the Fun Police! (Are they watching a sanctuary zoom session)

      I was amazed the Party Police sat there like a statue and allowed the fun to go on as long as she did!
      I kept thinking at the end that Bubs was like the Pillsbury Doughboy–poke his belly to get a noise! :slight_smile:

    Thank you for the video! Someone said on YT in the last 2 days that they were searching for examples of chimp laughter, and boom! Here it is!

    What a happy way to start my Sunday! I’m still smiling! What a joy to see.
