Portraits of happy chimps under blue skies

January 15, 2012 by Jackie

I still get goose-bumpy when I see the chimps out on the hill, especially with the sun on their backs and blue skies overhead. I just can’t imagine how amazing it must feel for them. What a difference a few years can make!

    Jackie, Thank you for these lovely photos. It must be so rewarding for you and the staff to see the progress they have made in the past 3 years and especially their experiences on the Hill. I’ll never forget Burrito’s big hug of Annie on opening day of the Hill (and of Negra) and how they all help each other.

    seeing all the chimps enjoy the outdoors is teary making,,
