Missy and Annie are playful in the morning, sometimes chasing each other all over the playroom before we even turn the lights on.

It makes me queasy just watching them!
Now that is scary, opposable toes or not!
What a difference a year (+) has made in their strength, agility and confidence!
Awesome, watching these two play. It brings happiness to my heart seeing these beautiful chimpanzee’s actually living and enjoying life. I wish I lived closer so I could volunteer at your facility.
