    Theresa, I agree with you about Negra’s playface. There’s nothing like these chimpanzees playfaces to bring a smile to my face.

    I am trying to see what a “playface” looks like. Do you have a still? Does it look like a open-mouth grin?

    Cynthia – You can look up “playface” in the search box on this blog. There are several examples. One of my favorite is of Missy and Annie with big playfaces from this post: https://staging.chimpsnw.org/2008/10/play-play-play/

    It is so good to see Negra playing with Missy. And then to get to see her playface, oh how special is that?! Thank you Diana. It is good to continue to see the happy recovery of all the chimps.
    Now having said that… I agree with the others how long are you going to keep us in suspense???
