How do you know when Burrito wants to play?

April 21, 2024 by Diana

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.

What do you think?

Never enough Burrito!

December 8, 2022 by Anna

Burrito was a major distraction from Playroom cleaning for us this morning. Every time we saw him he was doing something wildly playful with one of his friends. I frequently abandoned poor Kelsi to do the cleaning by herself so I could grab some footage of the action!

Here’s a small sampling of what Burrito was up to this morning. Where does he get all this energy?
