Eric Jensen and Eric Johnson won an Emmy for their story about the chimps’ release onto Young’s Hill last year, and we were happy to have them back today to film a story about the Taylor Bridge Fire and our recovery. Tune in tonight at 5pm to KOMO 4 if you’re local to the Seattle area, or check KomoNews.com later this evening for the full story. We’ll post the link when we have it.

And while you’re waiting, wouldn’t you just love to know what Foxie was thinking when I snapped this picture earlier today? We often get asked to interpret what the chimps might be thinking, and that’s generally an impossible task. But whenever I see Foxie looking at her troll dolls, especially a new one, I’m struck by how intense the connection seems.

    i think she was thinking ‘this doll has bigger boobs than i do’ … or is ms foxie just fine with her body as it is?

    LOL Leslie. When did troll dolls become anatomically correct?! Maybe Foxie is thinking about how she’d look with a pink do!

    Looks to me as though Foxie has a look of love and tenderness for her troll.

    She’s probably wondering how long she is going to get to enjoy the pink hair before Jamie scalps her!! But all laughs aside, I agree she looks so tenderly at her new trolls with such love in her eyes.

    I agree with Leslie and Lindsay – I think Foxie is wondering if this is her first girl baby…or at least trying to figure out why she’s different from all the others!
