I love to see these stories on the news! Great job Keith! I would also like to thank KOMO 4 Problem Solvers for their coverage and thank KOMO News viewers for their donation to the wonderful cause of caring for the Cle Elum 7.
I agree with Keith. Their capacity for forgiveness is amazing. Chimps don’t hold a grudge. We can learn so much from them.
Love to all the staff at CSNW and of course chimpy smooches to the Cle Elum 7.
This is great. I notice there is an opportunity to post on the Komo site under the piece. I did that thinking it might encourage Komo to continue with periodic updates. Just a suggestion.
AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WOW! It is such a rewarding sight to see others touched by KOMO 4 airing the chimpanzee piece and then giving the donation. It keeps the heart going knowing there are people out there who care.
Thanks to everyone.
The chimps even got a promo spot during Grey’s Anatomy. Way to go KOMO!!! And Grey’s Anatomy did a great job speaking up for those who can’t.
I just saw this story again on KOMO News tonight! Another chance for more viewers to see the Cle Elum 7!! It’s great that the KOMO 4 Problem Solvers raised $1,000.00 for the sanctuary!!!
I am really grateful to KOMO for bringing this organization to my attention. I’ve added it as another permanent recipient for my Combined Fund Drive dollars.
Thank you Keith, for taking care of creatures that have, willingly or not, given so much for mankind. They deserve we can do for them in return.
