The many faces of Foxie

Chimps, just like humans, have really expressive faces. Here at CSNW, Foxie definitely has one of the most expressive faces, many of which we’ve dubbed “Foxie’s cute face” or “Foxie’s sweet face.” Here’s a compilation of Foxie faces I found today, stretching back a couple of years:

Foxie’s “I got a new troll” face:

Foxie with a mouthful of food:

Foxie’s relaxed face:

Foxie’s “intense face”:

Foxie’s play face: (She is wrestling with Jamie)

Foxie’s sleepy smooshed face:

Foxie’s hoot face:

Foxie’s up close cute face:

    Wow — Foxie’s new troll face is so open and tender. As for her intense face — well, all she needs is lasers shooting out of her eyes!

    Love the new email delivery of new blog posts!

    They don’t call her Foxie for no reason!

    Thank you to the Sanctuary for giving Foxie (and her 6 family members) the life that allows them to have expressions other than stress and fear. We love you for that.
