Snow – no joke

April 2, 2010 by Diana

Today’s weather seems like an April Fool’s Day joke! See photo:

It’s been snowing all day.  It’s the first time the greenhouse has been tested with a snowstorm. The chimps have been out there all day, despite the complete lack of sun. J.B. just came by and reported that it is 66 degrees out there! And Burrito went out and played chase with him.

This morning, volunteer Denice made sure the chimps had plenty of snow to eat. Annie was appreciative.

Negra enjoyed an afternoon nesting / vine chewing session.

while Jamie used a vine to work on some project of her own making (with a boot by her side)

Play Faces

March 16, 2010 by J.B.

Missy loves going through the culvert – she always comes out the other side with a big smile on her face!

Burrito laugh

March 11, 2010 by Jackie

As some of you may know from previous blog posts (most notably, All About Burrito), Burrito doesn’t laugh too often. In fact, he sometimes bites his hand in what seems to be an attempt to keep himself from laughing. But yesterday, Foxie turned over his tickle box and he just couldn’t help himself.

Foxie is so cool.

March 7, 2010 by Jackie

Foxie has a way of making everything she does look cool, whether it’s eating a carrot, watching TV, or tossing a troll doll head around.
