Fun with Sheets

by

The ghost game never gets old for Missy! I had to do a double-take when I was watching the security cameras on Lucky’s side. It’s usually Rayne who plays under and with blankets and sheets, but there Lucky was having a great time as her groupmates continued to sleep. I hope you enjoy the video!

These little moments of the chimpanzees doing spontaneous joyful things are what keeps me going. You can see some of these moments LIVE via zoom on Valentine’s Day. Learn more and register here.

 

How do you know when Burrito wants to play?

We are always thinking about how we portray the chimpanzees. It’s easy to forget that our videos and social media posts reach people who don’t know much about the sanctuary, or sometimes much about chimpanzees in captivity in general.

When I was starting to put together today’s video, I had that in mind, and instead of just sharing a charming and playful Burrito, I decided to put some context around my interaction with him.
