Chimps often walk bipedally when their hands are full (with trolls, for example). Foxie also does this when she is playing (in this example) or displaying.

    I love this one (yeah, right! Like I don’t love any of the others!!) I love watching the confidence Foxie has. It is wonderful to see this develop more and more. I have to admit though, that I am eager to see closeup photos of Burrito and Missy so I can be reassured that they are truly OK. Margaret

    I love the backwards dismount off the platform! 🙂

    Do the chimps ride that tricycle? If not, how do they play with it?

    I hope this doesn’t sound like do the chimps entertain us by riding on the tric, because that’s not at all how I meant it! It’s more, what use do they find for it?

    Missy isn’t wearing one sock like she usually does when she’s playing. That’s the most I’ve seen Foxie walk bipedally. They all look great.

    Hey, Anna I, too, liked the back dismount I just didn’t know what to call it. Way to go.

    I was wondering about the tricycle too – curious to know if they’ve ridden it, how do you think they feel about using this “tool” to move?

    It’s always good to see how happy they are now…and how they’ve gained weight and confidence…..I always love watching the videos and seeing new photos…thank you again for sharing.
