Chimpanzees are natural foragers, but Burrito also has a little bit of scavenger in him. He can often be found hours after a meal prowling the area for any bits of food the other chimps may have overlooked. Today shortly before lunch, he found a peanut that had been missed at breakfast. A single peanut may not seem like much, but for the guy who lives for food, it’s big news.
Bless him!
In the last picture you can see how happy he is with his find.
That’s more than just a peanut!
It’s a treasure, it’s a victory, it’s a payment for perseverance, it’s affirmation that there will always be more peanuts if you just keep looking 🙂
