Video of Negra

We’ve been going through some older videos we have and I just love this clip of Negra. I was standing on a ladder filming the chimpanzees coming into the playroom for the first time (it was only a little over a month ago!) through one of the windows. Negra saw me and approached, presenting her belly for a little rub. The window where I was is still a favorite spot for Negra – it looks out over the valley. Negra’s expression at the end of this clip is absolutely precious.

    oh gosh!….my eyes filled up with tears when I watched that video! She seemed to be craving poisitive human contact. That smile is priceless. And to see her today, so beautiful, so much more settled in her new environment. It was wonderful the the CE7 flourishing in their sanctuary….and I’m glad that my mother and I were not in the second viewing group when Jamie had decided she had seen enough visitors…enough said about that!
