Intrepid Explorers

May 12, 2016 by Elizabeth

It’s not the wilds of Africa, but Young’s Hill is looking pretty good this time of year. Even nervous Negra is exploring more than ever.

    How wonderful to see them out exploring. Using the Twister, I see 🙂 Tell me, is it fire hose that you use for the various roping and climbing connections?

      Yes! Fire hose is great for chimp enrichment. It’s so sturdy that even chimps can’t do much damage to it.

    The wilds of Africa can be very dangerous for chimps…..

      Very true, Lorraine. Still, we’d have loved for Annie, Burrito, Foxie, Jamie, Jody, Missy, and Negra to have had the chance to live the wild and free lives they deserved. 🙂
