The case of the droopy lip

Jody almost always has a drooped lip when she’s out on the hill. We’ve been referring to it as her “Young’s Hill Face”

Today, her droopy lip seemed to be mixed in with a bit of a sneer. Sometimes I sneer when I’m cold!

She sure does have a beautiful face though…

    The last picture says it all.

    What a beautiful portrait of Jody!

    Love Jody’s droopy lip. Is that Burrito or Missy climbing the ladder in the second pic?

      That was Missy…. good eye Teresa. Mr. B did go outside but for just a minute before lunch was served and he hi-tailed it back into the greenhouse to have a bite. B is never one to miss a meal.

    It is wonderful to see Jody out there, she got over her hesitation from the beginning and now loves it. She is a beautiful chimp.

    I love it! I love it! *does the happy dance* It’s so awesome see them “free” roaming.

    Is the droopy lip because she is so relaxed and happy out on the Hill or a different reason? She is beautiful!
