Morning Stroll
This morning after breakfast, Jamie very enthusiastically gestured for Dusty and I to go on a walk. It had been a while since I had gone on a walk, so I looked at Dusty and say “Well, let’s go then!”, and a walk we did! We went for a nice and slow perimeter walk where Jamie looked for snakes and Missy collected as many yellow goatsbeard weeds in her mouth as she could! It was a really nice way to start the day. I hope this walk made your day the way it did for Dusty and I!

Wacky Winter
It’s been a wacky winter in the Pacific Northwest! Sunshine in February, snow in March. Let’s take a walk together around Young’s Hill and see what the weather will do.
Snapshots of a Winter Day
Today was a beautiful winter day. The chimps spent most of their time exploring outside and lounging in the warm greenhouses. We’ll let the photos do most of the talking!
Negra was the first out this morning:

Foxie took one of her dolls out for a stroll:

When the Fog Lifts: The Movie
Yesterday Anna shared some photographs of the chimps enjoying the sunny day outside and today I bring you the movie version of yesterday’s idyllic afternoon with the chimps
Good Night, Sanctuary
Celebrating Mave on the Other Side of the Building
Yesterday, you got to see Mave celebrate her 36th birthday! Did you miss it? If so, check it out here!
Today, you get to see what everyone was doing on the other side of the building! Jamie, Missy, Annie, Burrito, Foxie and Negra got to venture out onto Young’s Hill, their 2 acre outdoor habitat, to forage for all of the birthday goodies! They had coconuts, Dole Whip, baby heads of iceberg lettuce, corn and mini peppers. YUM! (No mango for this group due to Annie’s mango allergy. Bummer!)
It was quite windy outside, but most everyone braved the wind gusts to participate in the party treats! Can you guess who DID NOT brave the wind?
