Play

CSNW Caregiver Exercise Program

July 13, 2010 by Jackie

Next to Missy, Burrito and Foxie are probably CSNW’s biggest goofs (chimp-wise, anyway) and balancing games of chase between the two of them can be quite a workout. I couldn’t ask for better personal trainers. 🙂

Bounty of trolls

July 6, 2010 by J.B.

This morning I watched Foxie gather what may have been the largest number of trolls she has ever carried at one time. She had a troll scarf, a sock full of trolls, and probably seven or eight loose trolls. It took her a few minutes just to figure out how she could hold them all at once.

In case you were wondering, she did it by holding the sock and scarf in one hand, a couple trolls in the other hand, one troll in each foot, and one in her mouth.

She seemed quite satisfied with her collection. She spent the rest of the day passing trolls to her caregivers and initiating wild games of chase throughout the sanctuary.

Sunny summer weather= playful, happy chimps!

June 25, 2010 by Jackie

Here’s a pretty cute video I caught yesterday with Missy and Burrito playing. Just before this (and before I had a chance to get the camera) Missy had covered herself (head and all) with a pink blanket, and was chasing Burrito around the playroom. She looked like a pink snuffaluffagus! 🙂

Burrito and Sarah play

June 4, 2010 by Jackie

I caught a cute moment with Mr. B and Sarah today… 🙂 Notice the “I don’t want to laugh so I’m going to bite my hand instead” photos. He’s such a goof…

Goofing around

June 2, 2010 by Elizabeth

People sometimes ask how we play with the chimpanzees if we don’t enter the enclosure with them. Exhibit 1:
