Snippets

This compilation of short video clips was really just a way for me to sneak marmot footage onto the sanctuary’s social media feeds. They may leave behind giant holes in the ground and a ton of poop, but they sure are cute.

    Dora is sweet. Oftentimes it seems as if she almost cuddles her friends. The Snake Patrol seemed quite calm, even Annie was offering only a slight whimper of a call. I guess she knew Jamie had it under control. As far as Jamie being afraid of Terry…..perhaps she’s not interested in men who appear stronger than her. Or maybe she’s intrigued and playing hard to get! George and Cy together must make great tour guides for your lucky visitors. Looks like a beautiful day for your guests!

    As for the marmots, jeepers, they are adorable. I love their face paint! I enjoy watching my woodchucks. Even if they do eat my flowers. They are so shy, scurrying away the minute they see you. Oddly I have never noticed their poop!

    Hey J.B.
    Very cute those marmots, and all that poop must be good compost??
    I was wondering if the other groups ( than Cle Elum 7 ) have had any encounters with snakes, and how they are reacting to them.

      For some reason we don’t see as many snakes on the Bray side. When the chimps on that side have encountered snakes, they have not approached them, thankfully.
