Morning Play!

September 21, 2024 by Krissy Brasfield

This morning, Jenna and I were cleaning the playroom when we were greeted with delightful chimpanzee laughter coming from the front rooms.  Can you guess who?  Of course, it was Burrito and his good friend Foxie!  Wrestling, poking, tickling, biting, pushing, pulling…all the things required for a raucous play session.  We really wanted to capture this fun time without catching the ire of the fun police.  How do you think we did?

Laughter

September 12, 2009 by J.B.

The chimps were in such playful moods yesterday! I could hear laughter coming from the playroom, so I grabbed the camera and caught Foxie and Jamie in a 10-minute long game of “steal the troll”. Thankfully, Foxie won in the end and the troll was returned to its rightful owner.

What a difference a day makes…when we came in this morning, the group had clearly been fighting and they had that look that says We can’t wait to take our frustration out on you, J.B., when you serve us breakfast!. Needless to say, I got drenched. But that’s what I’m here for!
