Yesterday, August 2nd, was a Sponsor a Day in honor of Neil Welch who “loves the intelligence and beauty of the chimpanzees.” Thank you, Neil and thank you Tanya for honoring Neil by dedicating a day of sanctuary for the Cle Elum Seven chimpanzees!

Here’s a special photo of the beautiful and intelligent Jody investigating the long laces on a sandal:

    Jody, you’re not the only one who looks at shoe laces trying to figure them out. Great picture! Maybe someday we’ll see Jody running around the room in a game of chase.

    That is a stunningly gorgeous picture! The lighting, the composition – not to mention the subject. 🙂 Jody’s innate curiosity and wonder come shining through. Thanks for sharing it Diana!

    And many thanks to Tanya for sponsoring the chimps for a day in Neil’s name. What a lovely thing to do.
