Brief description: Sturdy brushes can be given to the chimpanzees as a daily enrichment item. They can carry them around, use them to clean if desired (especially when paired with buckets of soapy water), or enjoy the texture of the bristles on themselves.
Materials: Rubbermaid Brushes (we have used their small yellow brushes, and iron-handle brushes, but have since decided against using these brushes due to the staples that hold the bristles together within the brush). We now use large wooden makeup brushes and wooden hair brushes.
Assembly instructions: No assembly required.
How to use: Provide brushes to the chimpanzees.
Price: ~$8-$10 per brush
