July 26, 2009 by Diana

OK – here are some photos to go along with my lengthy post about Saturday. I’ll post the conflict photos separately.

Foxie at the end of the day in room four – she got her necktie troll back. The troll on her lap is the one that spend some time on the roof.

Play!

July 14, 2009 by Elizabeth

Put up your feet and watch this looong and lazy video of Foxie and Jamie’s looong and lazy play session. Turn up your volume for lots of chimpanzee laughter.

Tireless Missy

June 27, 2009 by Elizabeth

The weather in Cle Elum is gorgeous today and the chimps have spent many hours outside in the sun. Missy has been so playful that she has barely stopped to eat.

Hanging out with Foxie

June 24, 2009 by Elizabeth

People sometimes ask how we interact with the chimpanzees through the fencing. While there are plenty of things to do that don’t involve any physical contact at all (chase!), there are safe methods of physical contact that allow us to tickle or groom — or be tickled or groomed by — the chimps. To make sure everyone stays safe, our fingers never penetrate the plane of the fencing. In this video, Jackie, our newest caregiver, uses a decapitated troll head (!!!) and a piece of bark to groom and tickle Foxie.

Chillin’ outside

June 7, 2009 by Elizabeth

It’s a little overcast in Cle Elum today, but that didn’t stop the chimps from spending some time outside. Jamie patrolled the outdoor area wearing her troll scarf, Missy engaged Diana in a game of chase, and Annie had a quiet moment with a mirror.
